Ten Thousand Dream Dictionary

by Pamela Ball
1- Dreaming of wax is a great deal to do with the pliability that we are able to achieve in our lives. We need to be able to be malleable, to be moulded, perhaps by external events. We should be prepared to give way, but also to be firm when necessary.

2- Wax can also to be taken to represent insincerity.

It is something that is consumed by the flame for instance, of a candle - and therefore can be moved and changed into something else with qualities that it did not initially have.

3- Wax is symbolic of the need for spiritual pliability, and the desire to move away from rigidity.

The Big Dictionary of Dreams

by Martha Clarke
It is an element full of magical connotations. Its malleable character and the form it reacts to heat symbolize transformation processes. The interpretation depends largely on what happens to the wax. It may mean union, passion, curing diseases, willingness to creative activities, or feelings of loss and grief.

The interpretation is significantly influenced by the color. White wax promises marriage and good health; yellow, deception and the possibility of having to attend a funeral; red, the sale of a current asset. To see melted wax is a sign of financial loss and mourning.
