Dreaming of a Mirror

🌙 ¿Te suena este sueño?

Your reflection looks different, older, or someone else entirely; sometimes the mirror cracks.

🏮 La mirada tradicional

Folk belief: a mirror in a dream reveals your true self or a coming change. A cracked mirror warns of bad luck or broken bonds; a different reflection means someone else's influence. Seeing an older self can mean wisdom or a warning about time.

🧠 La mirada psicológica (Jung)

Jung saw the mirror as the ego confronting the Shadow or the Self. A different reflection shows you're not living authentically; an older one, fear of aging or a call to mature. Cracks mean a fractured identity—not a premonition, but a mirror of inner conflict.

"The interpretation of dreams is the via regia to a knowledge of the unconscious."

— Sigmund Freud, The Ego and the Id, 1923
