Black Man Dream Dictionary

Carl Jung in his book “Man and His Symbols believed that we all dream of impressions of others.

He thought that it did not matter if our skin color in the dream. Even if our skin was green, red, orange or even black. So what does it mean if you dream of a person with brown or black skin? It is really about culture. We should not segment in the world based on our skin tone - we are all the same on the inside. To gain an overview of what the dream of color means we need to look at it from not only a spiritual context but also from ancient dream books.

This dream often appears when you’re looking to expand your social circle. It could be that you have some creative talent and acting would be a likely outlet, the black man is a symbolism of self-expression but could also just relate to someone you know.

What is the general meaning of a black man in a dream?

In order to fully answer this dream meaning, I will be taking the meaning of a man. As skin tone has no regards to the dream meaning. To dream of a man: this dream is associated with accepting a situation. The dream can also have an impact on what race you are. To dream of a black man when you are either Asian or white represents no difference to dreaming of someone who is another color.

The details are equally important in that is the dream either positive or negative? This will help interpret the dream itself. A black person featured in a dream could be a subconscious reflection of your own desires and skills. It can indicate that you do not seek the approval of societies.

You need to go in yourself and seclude yourself away from others. A man showing any type of violence in your dream indicates your own lack of self-confidence. Perhaps you prefer to remain aloof from all the activities and difficulties in waking life. If the black man in your dream hugs you then this can symbolize your own characteristics. Perhaps you want to love yourself more? As we have already concluded the black man could just be a symbolic sign of your own inner self. To see a man shooting, for example, gang warfare in a dream indicates that there is a tendency that you find it difficult to form expression for your true desires. It can also suggest complete reliance on spiritual devotion or on another. To talk to a black man in the dream indicates that you are looking for wisdom. You are constantly tempted with dishonesty in life and the man appearing in your dream indicates that you need to be more shrewd about how you approach matters.

Moving swiftly on, if you in real life are dark-skinned (like me) then the dream is definitely a reflection of your own inner feelings. It is important to look at clues within the dream. If you have sex with a man it indicates that there will be emotional problems in the future.

If your dream was positive in nature then this is a reflection of your own emotional beliefs. If the black man in your dream gave you advice then this indicate other people need to listen to what you say. If the black man in the dream is African-American then this indicates you are feeling pressures in life. If you yourself are a black man in the dream that you are not so in waking life then this dream indicates that you are trying to be somebody you’re not.

The color of the skin does not matter. You could dream of being an orange man but the key to the dream is that you are feeling that you want to connect with the male side of life in some way. If you see African-Americans as slaves in your dream then this indicates you do not feel that justice has been done in a matter close to your heart. In essence, this dream is a wake-up call where you have to listen to other people’s perspectives on life.

If the man was violent during your dream then this is a suggestion of your darker side that needs to be controlled. To see a gang of black men in a dream suggests that you are suspicious of others in life, as we have already concluded the color of the skin is not important. Generally, a gang of men represents suspicion irrespective of their skin color. To see black men riding a vehicle in your dream indicates that you are going to have deep dark feelings in the future. The vehicle indicates a symbolic sign for movement, the man in a car is a symbolism of possible fear. Again, as we have already highlighted the color of the skin is irrelevant in this case.

What does dreaming of a man wearing black clothes mean?

Dreaming of a man who wears black, maybe you cannot even see his face indicates that you may need help with your personal growth. Sometimes, we are irritated by aspects of others or admire aspects. These aspects can be a reflection of our shadow sides. These are the aspects we tend to hide or deny. 

• What character does the man wearing black remind you of?
• Could the character reflect a part of your personality?
• What is the character trying to convey in regards to learning about yourself?

It's a great way to get a better understanding of your dream of someone dressing in black. 

What does it mean to dream of a man wearing a black cloak?

Shadow is the hidden part of our psyche, where we store all the emotions and thoughts that are not important to us. Many dreams that contain emotional content will tell us it's time to take a look at the things we are hiding from. Sometimes the shadow can appear as a human being in dreams, such as as a stranger or as someone like us, but with different lured hair or even in dark clothes. Emotions in dreams can be very strong and can leave us feeling angry, guilty, or afraid. Our dreams do not contain the same emotions as our waking emotions. It is important to look at your emotions in regards to the black cloak.
