Dream About Wildfire
Detailed Interpretation
Wildfire—fire beyond human control, nature burning vast, landscape transformed by unstoppable flame. This is transformation beyond containment, change running wild.
Wildfires aren't accidents—they're how forests renew. But they're destructive beyond our control. The dream might represent natural but overwhelming transformation, necessary but frightening change.
Consider your position. Fleeing suggests escaping uncontrolled change. Watching suggests witnessing transformation. Trapped suggests unable to escape the burning.
What's burning? Forest suggests natural life transforming. Grassland suggests simpler terrain changing. The landscape type reflects what natural domain is being consumed.
Wildfires leave behind ash—but also seeds that only sprout after fire. The dream might represent destruction that enables new growth, endings that create beginnings.
