Interpretation 1 — Dream Explanations - Anonymous
Dreams of a grandmother represents the mature, wise, feminine elder within you; the one who tells the truth and loves you unconditionally.
If you dream of your actual grandmother, then this dream represents the qualities she represents uniquely to you and the feelings you have toward her. In general, dreams of a grandmother are about wisdom, the earth, nurturing and are a message to take care of your natural, earthly resources.

Interpretation 2 — Eric Ackroyd
A grandmother in a woman’s dream may represent what Jung called the Great Mother who, like her male counterpart. Wise Old Man, represents wisdom - and power - in the ‘collective unconscious’, the part of the unconscious that is much older than the individual. Sometimes the conscious ego may have to struggle to prevent these archetypes from swallowing him or her up.

Interpretation 3 — Raymond Buckland
To dream of a grandmother, or puri dai as the Gypsies call her, means that you are in need of help and advice.
The grandmother is the “old wise one’ of the family. She is always consulted when big decisions are to be made that affect the whole tribe. If, in your dream, she gives you advice . . . follow it! She will not be wrong.

Interpretation 4 — Klaus Vollmar
Very much like the symbol of Mother, but much more oriented to the past.
The all-powerful mother, the archetypal mother (the mother principle) in contrast to the merely personal mother. Grandmothers, like Grandfathers, are often wise guides and advisers.
