Black Raincoat in dreams
A coat that sheds water — preparedness for weather you know is coming.
How black changes the reading
Black colour pulls the symbol toward the not-yet-known — depth, hiddenness, the part of the situation that has not yet come into the light. The dream is rarely warning you; it is showing you that there is more to the picture than the part you have been looking at.
The base reading of Raincoat
A raincoat in a dream is the dream's image of the preparedness you wear when you know what is coming. The coat does not stop the rain; it stops it from soaking you. The dream brings the coat when you have, in your life, made the choice to prepare for difficulty in advance rather than be caught out by it. A raincoat on in a downpour is the dream telling you the preparation was correct. A raincoat left at home in clear weather, with a storm gathering, is the dream noting that you saw the weather coming and chose to travel without the protection you already owned.
