Bone dream meaning is explained below using 6 different sources. Each interpretation is shown with its source.

Interpretation 1 — Dream Explanations - Anonymous

Dreams of a bone symbolize your core, your soul essence, and/or the foundational principles of your life. Bones are also symbolic of strength, courage, and determination.

If you dream of a broken bone, then this is about the structure of your belief system being fractured or broken. As in all breakdown/breakthrough dreams, something breaks in order for something better to be rebuilt.

Interpretation 3 — James R. Lewis and Evelyn Dorothy Oliver

Bones can obviously represent death, either literal or metaphorical. They can also symbolize a state of reduction or deprivation (as in being “stripped to the bare bones” and being left with a “skeleton crew”). Less ominously, bones may simply refer to the structure of something.
