Chimney dream meaning
A chimney points to a displeasing incident and hurried news of sickness; a fallen chimney suggests family sorrow and likely death, while vines promise happiness after loss.

Personal symbolism
The chimney’s condition, what is happening around it, and whether you move up or down all matter. A tumble down chimney brings family sorrow, while vines connect happiness with grief or loss. A fire burning in the chimney is favorable, but hiding in its corner brings distress and doubt, with business appearing gloomy. For a young woman, descending suggests impropriety that shocks her associates; ascending suggests escaping trouble planned for her. Notice which image and feeling stayed with you.
Questions to reflect on
- Was the chimney falling, overgrown, burning, or a place to hide?
- If you moved through it, were you going up or down?
