Embrace

In dreams, when you see that you are hugging yourself, then it shows that you have started accepting how you are and are slowly eliminating the thoughts of how you should be. It emphasizes self-acceptance and self-love.

When you see in your dream that you are embracing someone else, whoever it may be, it may suggest that you are being hard or insensitive to people in the real world, that you should show more affection and love to people than you usually do.
