  1. Dream of Your Spouse Marrying Someone ElseCheck in with yourself

    Your spouse holding a wedding with someone else is read not as a real change of heart but as a sign the relationship needs attention. Old readings also said a chance to renew the couple's affection was coming.

    It reflects a fear that your place might be shaken, or a sense of being left out lately.

    • Dream of just watching at the ceremony · You haven't been able to voice your hurt.
    • Dream of stopping the ceremony · Your will to protect the relationship is strong.
    • Dream of holding your spouse tight after waking · It becomes a chance to reaffirm how precious they are.

    Today's advice · Tell your spouse one thing you're grateful for, out loud, today.

  2. Dream of the person you like marrying someone else, again and againDepends on the scene

    The person you like marrying another, over and over, is traditionally read as a change actually coming to your relationship with them. If you calmly congratulated them, your heart will settle and you'll welcome a better connection.

    Fear of loss shows you the most painful scene in advance.

  3. Dream of holding your wedding again with your spouseLucky dream

    Holding a wedding again with the same person is a lucky dream of the relationship being newly strengthened and starting fresh together. If guests blessed you, help from those around you comes in too.

    You want to reconfirm your feelings for each other.

  4. Dream of your husband losing his wedding ringCheck in with yourself

    Your husband losing his ring is seen as a sign that promises or conversations in the marriage have been neglected. If you searched together and put it back on, the relationship recovers and grows stronger than before.

    It's the regret that you've been paying each other less attention lately.

What to do the day you have this dream

Today's advice · Take an honest look at where your own heart leans, rather than at others' expectations.

  • Note the clearest scene and how you felt in it. The reading turns on that feeling.
  • If you have a decision to make today, it is fine to sleep on it one more night.
  • Think about whether anything in your waking life resembles the scene. Dreams often show current worries in another shape.
  • Send a light hello to the person in the dream. Dreams often reflect the relationship more than the person.
  • Write it down in your dream diary · See by date whether the same dream comes back
