Scarf dream meaning is explained below using 9 different sources. Each interpretation is shown with its source.

Interpretation 1 — Dr. Mıchael Lennox

Because a scarf is worn around the neck, as a symbol it relates to issues of communication and having a connection to your voice. One function of a scarf is protection from the cold, and as such, in a dream it may indicate a need to hold back expressions of criticism or disdain. As an adornment, a scarf can also be highlighting a need to become more expressive and free with how you speak. Consider the implications of wrapping the head and face in a scarf as possibly connecting to the religious connotation of humility as part of the interpretation of a dream that features a scarf.

Interpretation 3 — myjellybean

To see a scarf in your dream symbolizes self-restrictions. You may be too controlling of your emotions instead of expressing them. Or you may feel that your voice is being muffled.

To dream that you are wearing a scarf, suggests that you are separating your mind from your body. You may be relying too much on how you think, rather than how you feel, or vice versa.

A scarf worn around a character’s neck in a dream may bring attention to the throat area, perhaps suggesting that he is covering up or not expressing who he is. As an expression of style, a scarf may represent a suave and sophisticated demeanor.
