What does it mean to dream about Abdomen?
To see your abdomen in a dream, foretells that you will have great expectations, but you must curb hardheadedness and redouble your energies on your labor, as pleasure is approaching to your hurt. To see your abdomen shriveled, foretells that you will be persecuted and defied by false friends. To see it swollen, you will have tribulations, but you will overcome them and enjoy the fruits of your labor. To see blood oozing from the abdomen, foretells an accident or tragedy in your family. The abdomen of children in an unhealthy state, portends that contagion will pursue you. * See Belly.
Christianity
Dreams featuring the stomach are seen in Christian symbolism as representative of wealth and life itself. In this context, the size of the belly plays a crucial role, with a larger stomach indicating more favorable prospects. A plump belly, reminiscent of the aesthetics of the Rubens era, suggests good income, increased savings due to prudent financial management. On the contrary, a thin belly symbolizes unreasonable spending, financial ruin, failures in love, and a surge of ill will.
An incredibly enlarged stomach is subject to varied interpretations. Grishina’s dream interpretation associates it with a desire for indulgence and debauchery. Other dream books suggest that an exceptionally large, swollen stomach in dreams may hint at potential stomach issues, troubles, or manageable worries.
Miller’s dreambook offers optimistic interpretations of seeing your own fat belly in a dream, signifying wonderful prospects ahead. However, if the dream features flabby, wrinkled skin on the belly, it may imply slander. A dream of a well-defined, muscular abdomen with visible six-pack abs suggests that no difficulties will hinder your path to achieving your goals.

Islam
In Islamic dream interpretation, the surface part of the body between the chest and the pelvis, which includes the belly or abdomen, symbolizes a person’s strength, health condition, wealth, and, conversely, poverty. A big belly in a dream can represent plenty of wealth, children, or indicate involvement in usury. It may also imply that the dreamer has spent their wealth on sinful pursuits and feels a need for expiation. Shaving one’s backside or abdomen in a dream suggests that the dreamer needs to pay off their debts.
Hinduism
Dreaming of the stomach or abdomen in Hinduism generally has positive connotations. It may indicate a wish fulfilled, especially related to food. Additionally, it can symbolize a realization of the need for exercise and weight loss, perhaps as a result of lifestyle-related health issues. Happiness in a dream featuring the stomach may portend upcoming opportunities to be with friends or people the dreamer likes. It can also reflect a newfound boldness to pursue desires.
Conversely, when a dream features the dreamer not being seen in it, it may indicate feelings of frustration, being stuck with an impending matter, and lacking free time due to busyness. If the dream includes the dreamer in a happy context, it may be a sign of joy, reunions with someone or something you like, and relief from a health issue. However, if the dream involves unknown people or locations, it may symbolize confusion or a feeling of disorientation.
An unusually bloated or huge abdomen in a dream can serve as a warning sign regarding potential health issues, particularly related to overeating. The interpretation of a dream varies depending on the specific details and emotions associated with it, and dreams typically carry meaning when they occur without intense preoccupation with the subject matter during the day.
