dreams about cunnilingus and oral

Dreams bring to life our little angel and devil voices

Dreams about sex acts have great variety of meanings. Let’s explore possibilities related to what it means to dream about receiving cunnilingus and giving it.

Begin with your associations. For some women, cunnilingus is associated with unselfish sex. A partner who will go down is unselfish, looking out for you and considering your needs, wants to please. A dream could turn the feeling of being treated well or unselfishly or receiving some other sort of pleasure, such as a compliment, into a scene involving oral sex. It’s exaggerated but tells a good story and is memorable. Plus, a compliment is delivered orally, creating a symbolic connection with oral sex.

Giving cunnilingus can symbolize ideas related to tenderness (it’s sensitive down there), attention to detail, “hitting the spot,” or intimate knowledge of the body. These associations can be used to create symbolism entirely unrelated to sex. For example, dreaming about your partner giving you rough, unpleasant oral sex can symbolize a feeling of being treated roughly, or being “chewed out.”

Cunnilingus can symbolize “warming up” to take on a big creative project. That association is created by the inherent link between sexual energy and creative energy.

Because anything related to oral sex in a dream can connect with articulation or things said, performing fabulous cunnilingus can be a play on the idea of pleasing people with your words or saying something just right. It can mean exciting or moving people with oration or music — especially music created with the mouth through singing or playing an instrument.

Cunnilingus is associated with closeness and intimacy. In a dream it can show that someone or something is very close to you. To receive or give cunnilingus means getting very close and personal.

Any oral sex or kissing in a dream can symbolize talking about sex.

Oral sex has associations with dominance and submission. The person receiving it is in a dominant position. It can symbolize being in a dominant position in a relationship or situation, not just in regard to sex.

As a symbol, the vagina is loaded with possibilities for symbolism. Read more about the dream symbolism of female anatomy in my Dream Interpretation Dictionary.

Oral sex can be associated with body image and shyness or openness. Some women do not feel comfortable opening their legs for close inspection. They worry about hygiene, about turning off their partner, or about being judged, among other things.

Refusing cunnilingus in a dream can mean you are shy about your body. Or it can be a dream metaphor for being closed off personally or emotionally. It can mean you don’t want to let someone in—or let anyone in.  It can mean you don’t want to talk about something, or are hiding something that’s likely to be personal. Then again, spreading your legs wide open to let your partner dive in can be a way of saying you have nothing to hide, or are open to something.

Doing harm to your partner while giving cunnilingus can express fear of accidentally causing harm during any sort of sex, but especially while you’ve got your mouth on precious and sensitive parts!

If a woman has trouble orgasming during intercourse and dreams about orgasming from oral sex, a dream about it can be a suggestion to give it a try if she hasn’t already.

Finally, consider the female equivalent of the phallic symbol—a yoni symbol—and the many euphemisms for cunnilingus and how they can be used as symbolism. A dream might refer to cunnilingus through symbolism such as eating a pie, licking an ice cream cone, opening a box or flower, or a bee sucking nectar.

A man dreams about removing his penis and attaching it to his wife’s stomach, then positioning himself behind her to lick her vagina and anus as he reaches around to jerk off the penis. In that image he sees himself compensating for what he perceives as lack of sexual prowess. A reach-around is slang for compensation, and in the dream it symbolizes his feeling of sexual inadequacy.

  1. I had a dream of a guy who is not a close friend but someone I only met and know, performing the cunnilingus on me in front of his friends. They were watching me and I was nervous but enjoying it. It turned into me giving this guy friend a blowjob and when I woke up I found it very odd because I am in a band and only just met this guy.

  2. I had a dream that the devil was performing cunnilingus on me. It was very graphic and erotic. He had a giant black tongue! I was so sexually excited that it woke me up in the middle of the night. Of course it is now freaking me out. As I ponder how it may relate to my life, I keep thinking that it might be because I am seeking a lot of change right now. I have these continuous impressions of societal inertia. I daydream about what I can do, and have for a long time now.

    1. Luna, I’ve been busy writing a coursebook on dream interpretation. I can’t reply to all comments, but I just saw yours and wow, what dream imagery! It’s important to view it as metaphorical symbolism and not as literal. Here’s a possibility for symbolism: around the time of the dream, you heard something that turned you on in the personal sense. It may have been something “dirty” or “dark” and that’s why the dream showed it as the devil performing oral on you. Oral sex and oration have symbolic connections; that’s why I mention it as a possibility for how the dream connects to you.

      Your sense is the dream connects with your desire for change and to make a difference. Allow me to share with you what I learned from Dr. Carl Jung. He said that we become enlightened by knowing our own inner dark side. It’s not saying “be bad,” it’s saying to recognize that there’s a place in life for the raunchy, the bawdy, the dark truth, the puncturing of hubris. The devil, according to Jung, is a side of God — a side that most people reject, therefore they don’t truly know God. People hear that and tend to reflexively deny it, but what Jung found was that devil in his visions balanced out an excessive tendency in himself for righteousness and piousness. The balance of light and dark is enlightenment, according to Jung, and I find that achieving that state makes a person a potent force in the word.

  3. I had a dream of going down on a family friend, she and I don’t speak anymore as I introduced her to the guy she married but 2 years later they divorced and she’s holding me responsible for hooking them up. In the dream going down on her it just felt wrong, her clit was hard, almost like licking dry wood. Then I saw her mum on the bed next to us, I moved to the mother to show the daughter how it should feel like, and went down on the mother, and straight away she started moaning, after a while I went back to the daughter and pulled my penis out and pushed it slowly into her vagina, but it just wouldn’t go in, it was very dry and resistant to allowing me to enter. The mother was laying on her back and I moved across and showed the daughter again, this time my penis slid in with ease as I started to drive it deep into her.. then I woke up

    1. An interesting variation on the theme of the cunnilingus dream. Thank you for sharing it. There’s so much potential for symbolism. I see potential for the idea of trying to teach someone to “loosen up” and be an adult. Sex is an adult topic, plus a mom (someone mature) is in the scene. The dream could be about the circumstances with the friendship that “dried up,” but you should look inside first for what you are trying to show yourself with this imagery. It’s more likely to speak to something happening inside you, like you are trying to get out of a “dry spell” by bringing some pleasure into your life.

  4. What do you think if I’m a black woman in the body of a white male performing cunnilingus on a white female in a bathroom in a classroom (behind a closed door) and she climaxes and the cum looks like how it would when a make cums and it’s all over the place my chest (as the white male) and a ice puddle on the floor? She squirted. Also her vagina only has a vertical slit , but no hole, don’t even think I recall seeing a clitoris it almost looked like a baby doll type of vagina .. but the fluid (discharge came from somewhere) .. I was happy to do it in the dreamh to give pleasure and confident that I would get that type of result. Then she started going to spread the word all over school and others told on us that we were in the bathroom doing that.

    1. An idea present in the dream is you are learning to see from another perspective, one that’s opposite in some ways from what you’re used to (a black female dreams about being a white male, about as opposite as it gets). There’s a power you have to give pleasure, and since you use your mouth to do it, consider the idea that it’s your words that can give pleasure. Also, the girl goes to “spread the word,” another hint that cunnilingus in this dream actually means “oration.”
