The meaning of a dream of human skin varies with its condition.

If you dream of smooth, beautiful, healthy skin, it foreshadows romantic happiness.

If you dream of blotchy or pimply skin, however, it indicates romantic trouble ahead. Peeling skin represents a sloughing off of the old in order to make way for the new.

Animal skins are a symbol of death, colored by the nature of the animal.

For instance, rabbits represent fear, and if you dream of a rabbit skin that indicates that some of your fears are going to disappear. Dreaming of an ox, however, indicates a loss of strength and stamina.

To dream of a coat or stole made of animal skins is a symbol of exploiting the vulnerable for the sake of one’s own gain.
