Nose

Noses, Nostrils

Your nose leads the way, quite literally, and in dreams it's often tied to instinct and curiosity. Smelling something clearly suggests you can sense what's going on around you before anyone tells you. A big or unusual nose can point to nosiness, yours or someone else's, or a feeling of being looked at. A blocked nose may mean you're shut off from something you'd normally pick up on. Following your nose in a dream is a nudge to go with your gut.
