What Does Rain Mean in Dream Interpretation?
Dreaming of rain means release and cleansing. Something held in is finally coming down.
Rain washes and it also arrives without being asked. In dreams it usually marks emotion finally being expressed rather than sorrow arriving.
Its force matters: light rain means gentle relief, heavy rain means an emotional flood that may be overdue.
