What Does It Mean to Dream About Jar?

To dream of a glass jar represents something about yourself or your life that that is safely observed and intentionally being preserved exactly the way it is. Awareness that you are preserving something a certain way on purpose. The option to use something that has been kept the way it is on purpose.

Negatively, dreaming about a jar may represent feelings about cheating someone and observing them being kept that way on purpose. Jealousy or ignorance that observes you being kept reduced, demoted, or cut off on purpose possibly while lying about ever reversing it. Feeling that there is nothing special about yourself or some area of your life intentionally being kept in observational status.

Example: A woman dreamed of an ugly lizard creature inside a jar. In waking life she liked talking about how horrible her cancer experience was. The creature in the jar represented the horrible experience of her cancer that she valued herself for confronting and liked being able to discuss as much as she wanted.

Example 2: A woman dreamed of her supervisor handing her a jar of water. In waking life she was experiencing her supervisor demoting her and then observing her being kept that way on purpose.

Jars in dreams often represents the important things that we keep confined for security and shelter. In dreams it is common to notice a broken jar that represents a loss of clarity and focus that was once contained. Noticing a jar of honey is a very symbolic dream indicating good luck or beneficial resources that have been accumulating over time.
