Dream Meaning of Contempt

Dreaming of contempt usually reflects your real feelings toward someone or something. If you feel contempt for a friend in a dream, it means you have no respect for that person in real life. If you don't know who you are showing contempt for, the dream suggests you feel complete contempt for everyone—you hate the people around you and don't want to do anything for them. In this sense, showing contempt is part of your personality. Speaking contemptuously of someone carries a similar meaning.  

Alternatively, showing contempt for someone in a dream can mean you will make a mistake at work or in your social life. That mistake will bring sadness and regret. The dream may also suggest that a wrong step will cost you your reputation, and that your family and friends will insult you.

Moreover, a dream of contempt may signal that you are changing from good to evil. These days, you act without considering other people and no longer sympathize with them when they are in trouble, the way you once did. You don't watch what you say, and your words break people's hearts. So this dream may be a warning to control yourself and return to being the kind person you used to be.
