Moth Dream Meaning: From 19 Different Sources

Moth

The polar opposite in dreams to the butterfly, the moth symbolizes those dark and uncontrollable urges from the unconscious that plague our efforts at transformation and self-awareness in real life. The moth is largely associated with night-time and therefore indicates the hidden or darker aspects of your personality. To see a moth in your dream indicates that unseen damage will not become apparent until it is too late. Such a dream is telling you that it is important to pay attention to minor details and not overlook things or others.

Alternatively, the moth may symbolize your weaknesses, character flaws or a dangerous attraction to someone who is not good for you, as the image of a moth flying too close to the flame indicates. Moths flying out of clothes in your dream may indicate old arguments and hurts that need to be addressed. Pay attention to the item of clothing that the moths attack; a coat, for example, might symbolize protection. More positively, however, to dream of a moth emerging from darkness signifies growing self-awareness in real life.

Moth

Feeling drawn to something or someone.

Attraction.

An instinct or desire, or acting on one.

A nuisance or bother.

Focusing on the “light,” God, your higher purpose, optimism, or something else that’s “light” or that attracts your attention.

Activity during what would usually be a period of rest.

Dreaming of this insect can represent too much or not enough of one of those qualities, or someone or something you associate with the quality.

Consider also the insect’s actions, context, and your feelings about it.

Moth

A moth is not very attractive, desirable, or known for many positive attributes. There is the story of a moth being attracted to the flame, which got to close to the flame and was destroyed.

The moth in your dream may be pointing out a personal weakness or may be bringing to light a deception in your life. It could be suggesting that you are being lead to a place where you will be hurt unless you recognize the danger. Since dreams are very rarely literal, the danger could be emotional or psychological, not necessarily physical.

Moth

Material aspects: The moth is largely associated with nighttime and therefore connects with the hidden side of our nature. Also, because the moth can be self-destructive when there is light around, it may highlight personal weakness. It also tends to symbolize our dream self and the more transient side of our personality – that part that finds difficulty in settling to proper tasks.

Moth

Moths represent the shadow side of our personalities and the things we like to hide, from ourselves and others. While this is true, they are also drawn to light suggesting it is time to bring those things out in the open. Acknowledge your weaknesses and learn to love your true self. You might also hear or share a secret. Either way, something is going to come to light in the near future.

The moth symbolizes the self, but perhaps in its darker, more worldly sense. As the butterfly symbolizes the soul, so the moth symbolizes spirit trapped in the physical realms.
