Copper Head

Post by wholeheart »

Pls ask God to give you an interpretation to this dream. I think I know what it means, but would like a confirmation. I'm really struggling and greatly appreciate your help.

I am in a 3 room house or storage shed. I see a portion of a very lg orange snake. About 8-10" in cir. It is going from the room I'm in to the back room. I'm wondering how to get rid of it. I can't see the head to know if it's poisonous so I don't want to just pick it up and toss it. My mom walks up behind me and says, "It's a copper head."

We go into the back room to find it. There's an old pool in the room but it's empty, small and in disrepair. There is a crack in the pool that runs horizontal. The ground has shifted over time and caused the top of the pool to hang over the bottom where the crack runs. We can see the snake hiding in the inverted crevice the shifting has caused. At some pt I do see the snakes triangular head. While we are deciding what to do, a few more people show up..the dream ends.

Does anyone have any thoughts?

Thank you,
Whole Heart

some one is spreading a venomous tale of distruction about you.
do you work in an office because secretarial pool came to mind when you mentioned pool. when you said horizontal line I saw a telephone line....maybe someone at work is spreading a rumor.

I'm not sure that this really applies to your dream, but Moses did lift up the bronze serpent in the wilderness. I think of these verses when I think of copperheads.


Numbers 21:8 And Jehovah spoke to Moses, Make yourself a fiery serpent, and set it on a pole; and it shall be that when anyone is bitten, when he sees it, he shall live.
Numbers 21:9 And Moses made a serpent of bronze and put it on a pole; and it happened, if a serpent had bitten any man, when he looked to the bronze serpent, he lived.


John 3:14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:

Jesus Painter,

While it could be true that someone is spreading rumors about me, it isn't at work. I'm a stay at home mom.

This summer I did dream that a snake I was holding turned around and bit me! (very disturbing...) A trusted dream interpreter told me it was probably just what you said!

Graphite,
I appreciate the verses! It never once crossed my mind that the snake could be a positive thing. I will certainly pray over these verses!

Another interesting thing; I googled Copper Head snakes and this is what stood out to me: More people get bitten by the copper head snake than any other snake in the US. Their bite is very painful, but rarely deadly. However, seek immediate medical attention, as poison destroys tissue and possibly the loss of use of the limb.

Why do more people get bitten by Copper Heads? Here was the warning: Do Not Attempt To Remove or Kill a Copper Head. Their very first instinct is to attack defensively to get you to leave them alone. The emit only a small amount of venom b/c they are not trying to kill. They reserve their venom in order to use when they do intend to kill.

This warning really stood out to me b/c I'm always trying to figure out/analyze my struggles in order to fix them or at least give them to God in an orderly fashion.

Does this even make sense? I still can't figure out why the copper head in my dream is the size of an anaconda instead of the usual 20-40". I wonder about this pool also. I dont know if it is important or not.

Anymore ideas or thoughts?

when I first looked at the dream I thought secretarial pool. But that is how Pappa plays with me...obviously it is different with you. When I think on it and prayed I realized something. was your pool blue? the color blue is revelation....so the tale was trying to hide under a place of much revelation.....and you stated that it was flawed, had a crack...a cracked pool holds no water....no life no refreshment can be there....Hope this is on if not well pitch it and ask Pappa...he'll tell you.

Jeremiah 2:13 For my people have committed two evils; they have forsaken me the fountain of living waters, and hewed them out cisterns, broken cisterns, that can hold no water.

The pool was white. . .

I've been thinking/prayimg about the broken cisterns vs. I spend sp
much time w/ the Lord and in the Word, but many times feel empty and drained. I worry what I wrong w/ me. Why have I lost my zeal for God and for serving Him?

These and other questipns worry me a great deal. Maybe all these questions are the big snake?

Again, thank you for your prayers and time!

Satan is a liar. He tries to condemn us, tries to make us think that we're not hearing from God, not close enough to God, not doing enough for God.

Is it possible that the Lord gave you this dream to show you that the enemy is trying to make you feel like you are empty?

Just press into Jesus. :)

Thank you, WP. I really needed to hear that! Satan is a liar and it's time I quit listening to him!
