Being attacked by a hose with a flame

I dreamt a nightmare. The devil entered my room, though I only saw a shadow. I heard hissing from under my pillow and when I moved it, there was a thing like a blue hose hissing at me and acting like a snake as if it were to strike me. Its head though was a blue flame as in the hottest part of fire. The flame would grow in size as it tried to strike. I grabbed it by the throat and said "In Jesus name"! A few times I said it with the intensity growing bigger until the flame was gone.

Nightmares are reflections of real-world fears and anxieties. The shadow of the Devil in your dream could be a representation of negative emotions and thoughts you are harboring. Some ill-conceived ideas and brewing anger may be taking root in your head due to frustrating circumstances at work or in your home. As such, the hose symbolizes your awareness that you need to control harmful thoughts and actions. It shows your need for cleansing and purification from your personal demons. Consequently, the blue flame is a symbol of divine intervention and spiritual guidance. You may have to hold on to your faith and ideals so as not to succumb to evil temptations.

A dying flame surrounded by walls

I had a dream about a flame surrounded by super tall walls, they were built around it, and an occasional sprinkling of a liquid. Watched this massive flame reduced by lack of air and the sprinkle. At the end it was just a kindling, but still there. The dream was completely in black and white, and I saw everything from within the 4 walls.

Fire is often a symbol associated with success and passion. As such, seeing that the flame was surrounded by high, formidable walls could reveal obstacles and roadblocks that are in the way of your success. Furthermore, the air and water that slowly reduce the height of the flames could be a metaphor for your dampening spirits and diminishing enthusiasm about your work. While this could be understandably frustrating, the fact that the fire was still burning, even a little, at the end of the vision means you have the power and patience to get through whatever challenges may currently be holding you down. You may need to lay low and bide your time until you have a good opportunity to make your next move, but when you do, you would be able to enjoy your success and happiness to the fullest.
