Small Dream Meaning

Something you perceive as vulnerable or overlooked.

Something that seems “under control” in your life (or that you’d like to have more control over).

“A lesser amount” or “lesser degree” of whatever the object or person represents (or example, if a car represents personal power, an undersized car might represent feeling unempowered in your life).

Something in miniature form can represent something you’d like to study, control, keep, or try out on a small scale.

For more clues, consider the meaning of the object or person that’s small.

See Size, Smaller, Getting, Measure, Toy, Sparse, Skinny

A pleasant smell could represent happy times or memories, whereas a bad smell can hold memories of particularly traumatic times.

If other things or people appear small: you did not make a great impression on them.

See Tall, Big. Are you making yourself smaller than you really are? And if so, why? Are you trying to make problems smaller than they are in reality? See Midget, Shrinking.

If it’s a person who seems smaller than in life, you believe that person is too full of themselves. Unless it is you - then you are feeling unworthy.

This was an interpretation put forward by Sigmund Freud. (See also Little, Shrink).

2. If one perceives some­one else as small, that person is not regarded highly.
