Dream symbol · S
Selfie
A selfie in a dream symbolizes self-knowledge, self-obsession, or a need for attention and recognition.
Dream interpretation
Dreaming of a selfie often reflects a focus on one's own personality, a need for self-analysis, or a desire for attention and recognition from others. It can symbolize how you see yourself or how you wish to be perceived. In a Jungian sense, the selfie can be a metaphor for the persona – the mask we show to the world, or for the striving for individuation. If the selfie is unsuccessful, it may indicate a discrepancy between your inner self and your outer image. Examine your motives for taking a selfie in the dream – this can give you a key to your self-discovery.
