Bride / wedding

Psychological (Freud)

A bride or wedding may mirror the wish to unite with a split-off part of the self, an inner reconciliation of opposing drives. It often marks an ambivalent threshold into a new role, where longing and the fear of losing the old self lie close together.

Oriental reading

In Oriental Islamic interpretation a bride is often read as a sign of glad tidings, blessing, or gain entering the home. Depending on circumstance, an unknown bride may also stand for the world itself and its alluring affairs.

Dream interpretation is for self-reflection and entertainment — it is not a medical or psychological diagnosis.
