Can anyone help interpret this dream about a snake?

My boyfriend's mother (whom I and my boyriend have been staying with the past few months, whilst we move into our new apartment) told me a strange dream she had the other night: I came up to her with a huge snake and tried to give it to her, saying that I'd found it outside- it was homeless and I'd apparently felt sorry for it! The snake wrapped round her body and she was terrified and screamed to me that she didn't want it and that it couldn't stay in her house. Then I tried to take it home to my own parents, who also didn't want it.

Can anyone shed some light on what this dream might mean? It sounds as if it is definitely symbolising something and I'm concerned that this isn't a positive meaning!!

Thanks.

    interesting. you realize this is a conflict of interest, don't you. Something about her dream pushed a button in you. Who remembers someone ELSE'S dream? NO one, that's who. You must have sensed that your putative mother-in-law was dreaming about a sense of evil she perceived from YOU! A snake, in this dream, would represent satanic forces. YOU had it, YOU brought it to her.

    So now what are you going to do? Go ahead with your plans to kill her?

    The snake represents sin, or in this case the more adult or sexual side of your relationship with your boyfriend. Having you be an influential woman in her son's life is too much for your bf's mom to handle because to her he'll always be her little boy. Same with your parents- you'll always be their little girl. But you are grown up, and so you have a sinful snake!

    I am thinking the snake is you, imposing on your relatives. You obviously feel guilty staying gratis at a relatives' house, and your boyfriend's mother is getting sick of you staying with her. While I doubt that she is to the point of saying anything, you are likely picking up on her annoyance.

    It is normal for many people now, especially with the economic down-turns, to have dreams and worries about staying with family. However, that is what family is for.

    This could possible mean that the snake is the burden you've put upon your mother -in-law by staying with her.

    It's choking her within her own home. She feels like she has no air, no space.

    And you can't go back to your parents, because they would feel the same.

    Move out soon.
