What Does It Mean to Dream About Saluting?

To dream of saluting represents feelings of yielding to or respecting authority. Respectfully showing someone that are important. Reverence.

Negatively, dreaming about saluting may reflect feelings of being forced to respect someone arrogant. Accepting a subordinate role, your status, or where you stand in life. Resignation to abusers of power. Feeling embarrassed that you need to show an "total asshole" respect.

To dream of seeing former dictators like Hitler or Saddam Hussein saluting may reflect feelings about confronting a powerful negative controlling influence in your life that cares about withholding power from you. Feeling good facing your worst problem once and for all. Feeling taunted by a tyrannical force in your life. Alternatively, it may be a sign that you have serious issues with total control.

Example: A man once dreamed that he was weeping with anger and guilt as he slowly raised his hand inch by inch in a Nazi salute. In waking life this man was living in Nazi Germany and felt frustrated and distraught about having to respect the Nazi regime as they turned Germany into police state.
