I've had a couple dreams where nostrils stood out to me symbolically. From what I remember, I think the 1 I had a few weeks back I was noticing my own. Last night I had a dream that I was talking to this guy I like (i'm pretty sure we have a telepathic connection). He was telling me that him and his girlfriend were having problems. I just remember looking up to him as he was talking to me and noticing his nostrils (there was something in them, but it didn't look snotty) Strange. Anyway in the dream I was thinking in my head that I had to look up what nostrils mean in dreams when I wake up.
I can't find any info on nostrils in dreams. Any ideas?

this is what I found about nostrils:

Gods transmitted the power to the pharaoh by holding the ankh symbol close to the nostrils of the king, who thus received its marvellous properties through the very air he breathed, the breath of life.

the male life-symbol is represented by the nostrils

Since we breathe air through the nose, the nostrils were the symbol of life.

Soul Symbols/Comma Shapes: I love you heart and soul
Possibly the oldest symbol adopted by lovespoon carvers is that of the soul symbol. Although the soul symbols look like modern day commas, they are often carved in pairs, which then resemble a pair of nostrils. It is said the symbol originates from the Ancient Egyptians, who believed that upon death, the soul left the earthly body through the nostrils. In the world of the lovespoon carver, the soul symbol means I love you, heart and soul.
