Spiritual Meaning Of Masquerade In Dream

One of the most common dreams (seen especially among Africans) is a dream about masquerades. Many people have reach out to me, asking to know the meaning of masquerade in a dream; and interestingly, most of these people happen to come from Africa. For the benefit of others who are also seeing such dreams, today we will explore the spiritual meaning of masquerade in dream. 

I presume that if you stumbled on this dream interpretation while searching for the biblical meaning of masquerade in dreams, you must have seen a dream about masquerade. I want to assure you that you are at the right place to learn what your dream means. 

Since masquerade dreams show up in various forms, for better understanding, this article will touch on the following:

  • Dream meaning of masquerade
  • Masquerade in dream what does it mean
  • Seeing masquerade in the dream means what
  • Dancing with masquerade in the dream
  • Masquerading spirit meaning

The belief in the masquerade spirit is deeply ingrained in the culture and traditions of many African countries. In Africa, masquerades often show up during cultural festivals—as masked dancers whose appearance mostly instill fear in the onlookers.

But there is always more to these festivals and its masquerades—beyond what the physical eyes can see. African masquerades often represent ancestral spirits. These spirits are not of God; they are evil spirits. This simply tells us that dreaming of masquerades cannot be a good omen.

Seeing Masquerade In The Dream


Simply put, to see masquerade in dream means that household witchcraft is after the overall breakthrough, progress, prosperity and success of the dreamer. 

To explain this... 

As earlier stated, dreams concerning masquerades are very common in Africa. These dreams often have a deep connection with the spiritual aspect of the dreamer's ancestry. 

Many of those who see recurring dreams where they are chased by masquerades often face diverse kinds of setbacks and difficulties in their waking life. 

There are some who have seen dreams where they are flogged by a masquerade. This dream is often a sign of family witchcraft bewitchment and oppression. 

The root of evil ancestral spirits can be traced back to families which refused to worship God (but chose to serve demons instead), many generations back in time. Since masquerades are connected to ancestral spirits, they are directly connected to household witchcraft. 

African traditional herbalists and witch doctors also have a strong connection with masquerades. In some families, there is always a traditional herbalist, a Sangoma or witch doctor who is a member of that family. They are always the same people who work with ancestral spirits—to become a channel through which these evil spirits continually attack and oppress innocent members of such families. 

If you constantly see yourself getting chased or attacked by masquerades in your dreams, no need to look far. The root cause and agents of darkness responsible are right within your family!

Understand that, masquerading is the work of Satan—since he never likes having his true identity revealed. The enemy prefers to operate incognito. Masquerade dreams always symbolize a deadly spiritual attack from the enemy.

2 Corinthians 11:14-15 NIV
And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. It is not surprising, then, if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will be what their actions deserve. 

If you constantly see masquerades in your dreams, don't treat such dreams as normal, because they aren't. You need to rise in prayer against evil foundational powers that don't want to see you prosper in life. 

Household witchcraft uses such dreams to manipulate the lives and destinies of innocent family members. By so doing, they have rendered many lives useless. That shall not be your portion in Jesus Name! 

Now that this has been revealed, you know what you're dealing with. So go ahead and war in the Spirit against such dreams and their effects. Give no room for them to manifest in your life. 

Dream Meaning Of Masquerade


  • What does masquerade mean in a dream ? If you have had several dreams where you saw masquerades, I am of the opinion that they were not good dreams. Masquerades can never be nice to have around—be it in the physical and spiritual realm. Their very presence exude the feeling of fear and dark energy. 
  • What does it mean when you see a masquerade in your dream? The moment you begin to see masquerades in your dreams, understand that there are witchcraft spirits and household enemies seriously working against you. They do not want you to experience any sort of breakthrough or progress in life. 
  • Seeing masquerades in dreams is a revelation that every Christian must treat with utmost seriousness. Masquerade dreams should be confronted through fasting and payers, and their effects destroyed right before they have a chance to manifest! 

1. Flogged By Masquerade In Dream


The appearance of masquerades instill fear. Not only because in most cases, they often show up with canes to flog those who cross their path, but mostly due to the fact that they often carry evil presence. When an African dreams of being flogged by a masquerade, I presume that they always instantly know it is not a good dream

To dream about being flogged by a masquerade means that the dreamer is under attack from household witchcraft. Through such dreams, they strive to spiritually torture, oppress and manipulate the life of the dreamer—in order to stifle their destiny. 

Being flogged by a masquerade in dream is a very bad dream. It is also an indication that the dreamer is spiritually weak. Being spiritually weak could cause such attacks to have effects on the dreamer. So go ahead and upgrade your spiritual life. Grow spiritually

2. Hiding From Masquerade In A Dream


When you see yourself trying to hide from masquerade in dream, first of all, this is an indication that the dreamer is fearful. Secondly, the dreamer is not spiritually strong. As Christians, God has equipped us to confront evil and not to be scared of them. 

Proverbs 28:1 KJV
The wicked flee when no man pursueth: but the righteous are bold as a lion.

If anyone must be free from household witchcraft influence, they must be willing to boldly confront them while awake (through prayers), and while asleep! As a Christian, always remember that He that is in you is greater!

Masquerade Chasing Someone


Dream of masquerade chasing someone is very common. Masquerades carry the very presence of Satan. They strive to dominate by fear. That is exactly how the devil operates. 

Every dream of getting chased by a masquerade communicates that the dreamer is under a serious attack. When enemies pursue, they pursue to destroy their target, not to save or protect them. Understand this!

This dream means that the dreamer is under a terrible attack from household witchcraft. They are desperately after their life, progress and destiny to destroy it. 

Whenever such dreams show up, there's no need to fear, but rise and confront these dark powers by the power of God!

Escaping From Masquerade In The Dream


There are people who see themselves chased, caught and beaten or flogged by masquerades in their dreams. So if you were able to escape from masquerade in the dream, that is somewhat a sign of victory. 

Giving Money To Masquerade In Dream 


Giving money to masquerade in dreams is a direct household witchcraft attack against the finances of the dreamer. 

The enemy came to steal... (John 10:10), and he strives to do that through various means. If Jesus called Satan a thief, then you should believe it.

Unfortunately, some still don't believe that the enemy tries every possible means to steal Christians' money (spiritually), so as to frustrate them financially. The earlier we understand this, the better. 

Household witchcraft attacks so many good things owned by their target (including finances). Anyone who constantly has this sort of dreams and does nothing about them will often find it difficult to experience financial prosperity. 

If God gives you money, it is your responsibility to protect it (both physically and spiritually). Some people are supposed to be more financially stable than they are today, but because of such dreams, they are not. Always pray and cover your finances against the manipulation of the enemy. 

Wearing Masquerade In The Dream


A dream about wearing masquerade can be interpreted as attempted witchcraft initiation. No one has the right to initiate you into their evil cult or coven without your consent. So reject it!

This dream is also an indication that the dreamer is not following God completely. There is no total submission to God. In that condition, if they do not do something urgently, they can forcefully get initiated by agents of darkness against their will. 

Such dreams must be rejected and cancelled. Every connection between the dreamer and household witchcraft has to be severed.
