| Dreaming about being surrounded or obscured by smoke, either an ominous haze or as the result of a fire, is often interpreted as a sign of hesitation and second-guessing yourself, habits that could prevent you from making progress on important projects or endeavors. Entertaining thoughts of self-doubt could deter you from putting a plan of action into effect, which otherwise could become successful. The main point is that not acting is just as bad if not worse than doing nothing at all. Additionally, smoky environments in dreams could indicate achieving your five minutes of fame from a successful venture but then being tricked out of your profits due to paying too much attention to the spotlight. |  |
