Dream about gaining a lot of weight

Gaining a lot of weight in a dream means that you are taking on more of the substance of your life and the lives of those you belong to. This dream shows a time when the things you hold and the duties you carry are becoming more solid and present. When a person gathers more to their name, they are often preparing for a season where they must stand firm for the household.

We have seen that those who welcome this increase find that their influence grows alongside what they carry. The grain in the storehouse is thick and the oil in the jar is deep. You, child, are finding that your capacity to hold what is given is expanding. This growth brings a steadying presence to the hearth and the table. There is a risk that this increase becomes a pressure that sits too hard upon the shoulders, making the walk to the well a weary one. The strength of your kin is found in how they share the load of this new fullness. May your hands be strong enough to hold all that is coming to you.

Gaining weight in a dream suggests that the abundance you are receiving is arriving in a way that feels natural and good. You find that the new things you carry settle upon you as easily as a well-worn cloak.

Putting on weight in a dream changes the verdict by showing that the increase is a process of slow building. The fullness comes to you bit by bit, like the slow ripening of grain in the field.
