Positive: Ears speak of receiving into your spirit, the truth of the Lord.
To hear with your ears in Scripture means to have understanding.
• Luke speaks of the ability to understand in this passage: • Luke 9:44 Let these sayings sink down into your ears: for the Son of man shall be delivered into the hands of men.
Negative: To see blocked ears or ears that cannot hear, means that the person in question has no understanding of the truth.
• Often in Scripture you will read how the Lord said, “Having 2ears, they did not hear...” speaking of the people’s inability to understand His instruction and parables.
• That exact meaning is clarified here: • Acts 7:51 You stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, you do always resist the Holy Spirit: as your fathers [did], so [do] you.. [1]
Any interpretation of a dream that features the ears must be considered in these two ways:
What is happening with the ears in the dream itself? Then filter that awareness through the question of how this is affecting your sense of balance or understanding of where you are in relation to the things around you. When you hear what others are expressing, you are able to tap into compassion and empathy, so the ears connect to these principles in action. Of course, a dream about ears is also about how well you are listening to what your life has to say to you. [2]
A direct reflection of your listening skills, or lack thereof.
The size of the ears here might help interpret the dream further, large ones being more open but also less discreet.
The need to listen more closely to your inner self, or the messages from those who care about you.
Earrings represent decorating or exaggerating the facts of a storv to make vourself look better (See also: Jewelry). Alternatively, this may be a warning from your own conscience to stop listening in on private conversations. In folklore, the ear originally got pierced as a chastisement for such impropriety. [3]
To dream that you are cleaning out your ears signifies that you are avoiding what those around you are telling you. You may not wish to hear what they are saying. This could be symbolic of ‘turning a deaf ear.’ To dream that you are enduring pain in your ear represents that you may hear some unwanted announcement. [4]
If your ears ached or you had trouble with them in your dream, it is a warning to look out for an untrustworthy person in your immediate circle.
If the ears were very large, you will get help from an unexpected source; if they were very small, you will discover a false friend. [5]
To dream of a pain in your ear means you will hear something that hurts your feeling. [6]
2. If cleaning one’s ears, the person is trying to be receptive. [8]
