Washing in a dream is a sign with a fairly strong semantic load, which turns the seemingly simple act of using the daily toilet into an interesting symbol. Its subtext can vary greatly depending on what details were in the vision and what the dreamer was doing. These kinds of details are extremely important to restore the full picture of what happened. Therefore, it is recommended not just to replay your dream in your head, but also to remember or even write it down. In the future, if a person wants to parse it, it will be much more convenient to work with a complete list of data. As for the interpretation options themselves regarding the fact that one washes one’s face in a dream, these can be gleaned from various options for the symbolism of water, as well as ablution as such.

Wash in a river (lake) - Soon you will have a huge number of worries that will require a lot of effort from you. If the water in the river is clean, you will cope with any hardships of life with honor; if the water is muddy, then get ready for difficult trials.
If you wash your face in a stormy body of water (mountain river, raging sea), beware of colds, which can be caused by even slight hypothermia, which usually does not lead to such serious consequences.
How dreams affect human perception
It is important to remember that any dream is a portal to the world of the subconscious, that is, real and fictional images that are layered on top of one another, combined with various experienced emotions and events, creating a chaotic set of signs, visions, and symbols. It is useless to look for clear logic or specific subtext in a dream, since this is practically impossible. However, it is enough to resort to the help of a number of dream books in order to more or less correctly choose the vector of your further searches.
Based on the information received, it is necessary to find the root cause of what excited the subconscious and forced it to motivate the person. After the manipulations have been carried out, all the threads connecting the vision and its consequences are visible to the naked eye. In addition, what is seen can leave an imprint on the matrix of human behavior, preparing and tuning it in the right way, which is also important.
Why dream of Washing according to the dream interpreter according to N. Stepanova

For those born from May to August:

For those born from September to December:

Symbolism of water and ablution
Water is one of the fundamental principles of the world, an element that gives life and takes it away. It is constantly moving, so it is extremely difficult to understand certain aspects of the deities who personify this power. The sea not only frightened ancient man, but also fascinated him and provided him with food, which is why the statement about “living” water appeared. However, we should not forget about the healing properties of mineral springs, in which moisture acts as a conductor for beneficial properties. According to the dream book, washing your face means renewing yourself, giving life and moving forward.
On the other hand, water is an element that is also capable of taking the life of a careless supporter. Therefore, washing your face with dirty or downright foul-smelling water in a dream means trying on the aura and soul of a sick person, acquiring health problems, as well as discord in peace of mind. However, it is worth emphasizing once again that a dream is only an indicator and cannot on its own provoke certain events; the cause should be sought in real life.
New impressions and meetings
Washing your face with clean water in a dream is a sign that a person’s life will soon be more varied. In fact, we are talking about an indicator of upcoming events. If the water is crystal clear and the dreamer is happy in the vision, then he will have a meeting with a representative of the opposite sex, who, quite possibly, will become closer. If a person was previously ill and saw himself washing his face in a dream, then, most likely, doctors will note progress in treatment and the potential for recovery. You should be wary if the water for ablution is dirty. It is quite possible that a person will have an unpleasant meeting or dialogue, negative news.
Interpretation by psychotherapist D. Loff
David called water both a negative and a positive symbol in the mind. According to Loff's dream book, the role of the image that appeared in a dream should be determined with special diligence . Often, the presence of water represents the highest emotional peak. At the same time, the range of feelings is as high as possible, from peace and bliss to anxiety and panic.
The pastor recommended paying special attention to whether the water is manageable. If the answer is yes, she is the key to solving problems, a symbol of restoration, renewal and a source of life. If we are talking about a body of water, it is important to pay attention to whether the coastline is completely visible, whether the current is dangerous, whether the water has overflowed its banks. The presence of one of these factors represents uncontrollable circumstances, so washing after a futile struggle with the elements can be a signal that a person has resigned himself to the inevitable.
In a dream where a person happened to wash his face from a tap, according to Loff’s dream book, the key person is the one who turns the handle. If an attempt to interact with the plumbing is unsuccessful and the dreamer hears only hissing, he feels that he is unable to cope with some simple tasks or phenomena. If the crane is controlled by a third party, the person feels how the position is determined by third parties.
Shocking events
If someone happened to wash their face with ice water in a dream, then this is a sign of imminent changes, but not ordinary ones, not at all, but unpredictable and very shocking. Most likely, a person from whom no one expects anything extraordinary will change his life so radically that those around him will simply be shocked. For a girl, this can mean dating and even marriage, but only if she herself takes the initiative. For a dreamer who cannot imagine life without work, washing with ice is a sign of imminent changes for the better at work.
As you can see, there are quite a few options for explaining why you dream of washing your face in a dream. All of them are true to one degree or another, variable and dependent on details. It is important to distinguish one interpretation from another and not needlessly torment yourself with waiting for bad news.
Wash your hands under a tap with water - according to Loff's publication
According to Loff, washing your hands under a tap with water means going on vacation abroad, relaxing in new cities, and finding new acquaintances. You have to travel to another city, or outside the city limits. It can be either very long-distance or long-lasting. It can last for weeks or even months.
Loff's publications practically do not divide the symbolism of dream images into positive and negative. He believed that other dream books were not entirely accurate in interpreting “unlucky” harbingers. Also, people treat the same precursors too differently, which only complicates the analysis. And if you dreamed of water masses, you should not consider this a bad sign at all.
What was the liquid?
The dream book recommends paying attention to what you washed your face with:
- a stream from a tap - shift responsibility to others;
- salty - shedding tears;
- milk - to have friends close in spirit or faith;
- snow - a sad mood will be replaced by joy;
- ice - shocking events will occur that can lead to a change in worldview;
- Holy Fire - great happiness, success in life.
Did you dream of washing your face with blood (for example, from an animal or another)? This means: in reality you will find yourself in a completely uncontrollable situation where you will experience real horror.
Revealing the Traitor
Among the interpretation options for what it means to dream of washing your face, there is one interesting one, which is centered around actions with another person. If the dreamer sees himself washing the face of a colleague, loved one or friend, then most likely he is a traitor and a liar, and the truth will soon come out. It is important not only to adequately perceive this information, but also to carefully remember who exactly appeared in the dream, since this person is dangerous. According to the dream book, washing your face means not only opening your soul, but also exposing a potential swindler. The same interpretation will occur if the spouse washes the face of his beloved in a vision. A woman, most likely, is lying to her man about a certain reason; he subconsciously understands this, but cannot accept it.
Lies and intrigue
Particular attention should be paid to the fact that the dreamer washes himself with clean water in a dream, but it becomes dirty after the procedure. In this case, it is appropriate to talk about the fact that they are trying to slander the person in every possible way. In this case, water acts as an absorbent and removes from its “ward” the dirt that was dumped on it. It is worth taking a closer look at your own surroundings. It is quite possible that one of the people is going to screw the dreamer, force him to commit fraud, or take part in spreading gossip. Of course, any suspicious proposals after a vision of how the dreamer washes himself in a dream should be driven away.
Quick tears and parting
If a girl dreamed that she was washing her face with salt water in a dream, then this is an unkind sign. Most likely, this is not just about something salty, these are tears. This sign indicates that in the future she will face unpleasant news, an unexpected and unfavorable meeting, and negative information. In addition, it is worth paying special attention to the vision in which a girl washes someone with salt water. This is crying for the sick or deceased, and its manifestation brings grief. However, you should not hang your nose, because the sooner relatives and friends are warned about negative news, the sooner it will be possible to take any measures and return a healthy person to the family or team. In addition, in the wake of emotional experiences, it is very easy to perceive fiction as reality and simply “wind up” the imaginary victim ahead of time.
New person
Perhaps everyone has heard the expression “become a different person.” Washing in a dream means not just improving your mental balance, but literally becoming completely different. Such a vision comes to those who have spent a lot of effort and time working on themselves, and therefore should be taken for granted, praise for the work done. After this, the person becomes cleaner, healthier, smarter. It is important not only to adequately perceive the assessment of your actions, but also to continue to work on your own body, mind, spirit, and carefully monitor your diet, physical and intellectual stress. Ultimately, moving forward is simply necessary for a person, and water only shows what life in full swing looks like.
Signal of hypocrisy
If in night visions a person experiences an obsessive desire to get rid of dust, and washing the face is perceived as an urgent need, the meaning of the dream is associated with lies and masks. Perhaps the dream signals that a person leads a double life, which tires the psyche: this is how dissatisfaction with oneself can manifest itself if one often has to hide one’s true opinion, adapt to a specific person or social circle.
If there are no such episodes in the present, the event should be perceived as a warning about an upcoming difficult situation, where being a hypocrite will be the simplest and most obvious way out. The dream serves as a reminder of the moral discomfort that follows unseemly actions.
If a person in night visions washes an adult, you should be wary of the consequences of lies and betrayal towards her. Details of the dream can soften the warning, or reinforce the negative context. Helping a child with hygiene procedures, on the contrary, is a harbinger of positive changes in the family sphere.
The alarm about the insincerity of the dream hero is indicated by:
- scenes where the person being washed offers resistance;
- clean water flows dirty, muddy;
- negative emotional coloring of the plot.
If a person performs an act of hygiene on an acquaintance, in real life he is likely to cause painful and vile intrigues. When an unidentified person acts as the person being washed, you should beware of fraudulent schemes.
