If you dream of lice, expect a period of anxiety and distress to follow in your waking life — it often accompanies unpleasant physical or health concerns as well. Lice on livestock in a dream points to scarcity and financial setback. Finding lice on your own body suggests you may behave in ways that put others off or create friction in your relationships. Dreaming of picking lice off yourself warns of illness ahead and a tendency to dwell in gloomy, unhealthy patterns of thought.
