Divorce in a dream: meaning

What dream books say

Divorce in a dream is traditionally read as separation from a role, habit or part of life. Tradition takes it as a picture of change, not a forecast for a marriage. Dreaming of divorcing your partner while happy together is usually read as fear of loss, or as a need for more independence within the bond. Dreaming of your parents divorcing is taken as old insecurity or a split between two values you hold. A calm, friendly divorce is read as peacefully ending a stage of life; a bitter one as conflict that feels unresolved. Dream books ask what you might be ready to separate from, and what you want to keep.
