Interpretation of dreams usually does not cause difficulties for people who regularly do this. However, it happens to every person that something incomprehensible, inexplicable or strange comes to the realm of dreams, for example, a dream about an iron. What this everyday object might be like should be looked for in dream books. The correct interpretation depends on the details of the dream.
A broken object in a dream or a desire for change in reality
Loff's dream book explains why a broken iron is dreamed of, by the anxious state of the dreamer who seriously intends to change his situation and get out of life's routine.
For housewives, a dream about a broken or old appliance speaks of a woman’s inner experiences, which are filled with self-pity and wasted years. Relating yourself to Cinderella, now you are wondering what you can change in life to avoid routine and feel happy.

Matters of the heart and love aspirations
Dr. Freud's dream book determines what dreams of an iron with steam mean, a harbinger of a new love relationship. Getting burned in a dream with a hot device speaks of a vile act that the dreamer will commit towards another person, undeservedly offending him.
If you dreamed that while holding an iron in your hands, you dropped it on the floor - beware of the manifestation of your own uncontrollable emotions, which can hurt and alienate your partner. Reconciliation or smoothing out the conflict that has arisen may lead to separation.
Seeing that the device is not turned off indicates an active search for an intimate partner and strong sexual aspirations. A dream about a cold household element foreshadows a clash with insincerity and misunderstanding of people dear to your heart.
Hot
What other subjects are covered in guidebooks to the world of dreams? What does a hot iron symbolize? The dream book considers a situation when this device heats up due to the fact that they forgot to turn it off. Such dreams indicate that a person is at a crossroads. A man or woman has to make a choice that will affect the rest of their life. The sleeper does not know what decision he should make, he is afraid of making a mistake.
Does the iron burn a hole in your clothes? The sleeper is captured by jealousy; he doubts the loyalty of his chosen one. A person constantly compares himself with his supposed rival and dreams of becoming like him. Most likely, these fears have no basis.
If the device burns out while being used in a dream, then in reality the man or woman will face household chores. A person will redo a bunch of things, but this will not bring him satisfaction. A good dream is an iron on fire. This symbol means that the sleeper’s old dream will soon unexpectedly come true.
Successful acquisition or unfulfilled desires
A modern combined dream book explains why one dreams of buying a new iron with steam, evidence of the dissatisfaction of a sleeping person, the unfulfillment of desires and aspirations.
The New Era Dream Book gives a different interpretation of why you dream of buying an ironing device, mentioning the need to put your thoughts and current affairs in order. A situation has probably arisen in your life that requires decisive action and careful preparation.
If you dreamed that you were given an iron, according to the Modern Dream Book, it speaks of improved interaction with the character seen in the dream. Giving someone a device with steam in a dream means get ready to have a not very pleasant trip with a depressing and unpleasant person.
Actions that the dreamer performs
The most correct interpretation of a dream is based on an analysis of the actions of the dreamer himself. For him this is a rather limited circle:
- Buying a steam iron in a dream means a person’s dreams have not come true, he is not happy with life, his plans have gone downhill, and his hopes have turned to dust. On the other hand, buying an iron that is unable to produce steam indicates the desire of the subconscious to be drowned out by the mind. The dreamer wants to muffle his thoughts, organize them both in a dream and in reality. Most likely, such a dream will come on the eve of an important transaction or event that has great weight for the dreamer.
- Ironing clothes in a dream, as well as getting a burn in the process, is a projection of the dreamer’s dissatisfaction with himself and his low self-esteem. The dreamer is unsure of his beauty and attractiveness, and this, in turn, gives the basis for such an evil feeling as jealousy.
- Burning through sheets or clothing is close to the previous interpretation. This time, jealousy will not be unfounded: the dream warns that soon a rival will appear in the life of a loved one, with whom the dreamer will have to fight.
Beating someone with an iron signals the cruelty of the person who sees it in a dream. His character, therefore, is not very pleasant, and he himself cannot cope with the severity of his emotions and actions. On the other hand, the fact that the subconscious is trying to warn the dreamer about his wrong behavior is a clear indication that all is not lost.
Curiosities with an iron predict anxiety
Getting a burn while ironing, according to the Dream Book for the whole family, is an expression of the dreamer’s jealousy or lack of confidence in one’s own attractiveness. Burning something with an iron in a dream predicts the appearance of a rival.
Seeing that the iron burns out during use is a sign of empty troubles that will leave behind an unpleasant “aftertaste.” If you dreamed that you forgot to turn off the iron, it means that in reality you are overcome by worries, anxiety, and also the fear of doing something wrong.
Hitting a character with an electric ironing device represents the anxiety of a sleeping person who is unable to cope with the negative manifestations of his own character.
Other dream details
If in a dream a person sees a working iron, then this symbol personifies some heavy thoughts that torment the sleeper in real life. Also, such a dreamer is full of doubts that do not allow him to live in peace. Therefore, it is recommended to free yourself from these thoughts as quickly as possible. Making a decision and getting rid of problems is the guarantee that sleeping with an iron will no longer torment a person. The main thing is not to harm strangers and loved ones.
A dream in which an iron engulfed in flame appears is considered a good symbol. Such night dreams foreshadow the fulfillment of a long-awaited dream for the dreamer. It is precisely these favorable events that a flaming iron can be seen in a dream.
A dream in which the sleeper sees an iron burnt out during ironing is not a favorable symbol. This is a sign that the sleeper will face troubles in the near future, namely various household matters. Only housework will not bring him any pleasure or benefit. But the dreamer in reality will spend a lot of energy.
