Or perhaps you are concealing something, keeping secrets, or hiding your feelings. See: Hiding Evil-looking masks can symbolize observing the darkness that can lurk behind the image of normalcy, or behaviors that can drive people to do things they otherwise wouldn’t. For example, addiction, envy, and lust can twist people to do things that compromise themselves and others. The darkness in them is like a mask over the good person inside. A mask can hide an aspect of yourself that’s consciously unknown. This use of the symbolism is especially likely when you encounter a dream character that’s your gender and wears a blank mask. What you actually see in that image is a part of yourself that wants to be a conscious part of your life, or a feeling that you are a “blank canvas.” The same imagery of a blank mask can symbolize lack of emotion. It can symbolize a weak sense of identity. Explore this subject further using the entries listed below. See also: Disguises, Emotions, Faces, Imposters, Makeup, Strangers
