Dream Interpretation Analysis

Meaning of wolves in a dream

The wolf has a somewhat poor reputation in Western mythology, ‘Little red Riding Cap/Hood’, the proverbial ‘Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing’ et cetera. It only needs one wolf to be on the prowl for shutters to be put up and people to tremble. It is not the supposed murderous tendencies of the wolf that provoke one’s fears; it is an almost sacred terror, an old dream deep in the collective unconscious. It seems that this dream has to do with a supposed understanding between wolves and men in a long-lost paradise. The wolf is charged with a vast range of symbolic values, and the dreams in which it appears are always felt to be powerful and consequently important. The wolf is perhaps purely "the beast", which appears from nowhere, wreaks devastation, and vanishes without trace, leaving carnage in its wake. In mythology, its role is sometimes benevolent, sometimes satanic. The wolf sees in the dark, so is symbolic of light and the sun. The wolf can be the solitary hero who defies the hunters. It is a symbol of intelligence and courage, but it is also the devourer of children, the werewolf, a demon from Hell. In dreams, the wolf acquires the importance that we attribute to it. It is often a part of the self, positive or negative. It can represent solitude and self-absorption, and retreat from relations with others, but it can symbolize instinct too; the instinct that certain people can only keep locked inside. The wolf can also represent a "devouring" character that we carry within us, a father or mother for instance. It often represents a social character of this nature, for a man may be "a wolf towards other men or women, but a wolf seldom behaves badly towards other wolves.

To dream of a wolf, shows that you have a thieving person in your employ, who will also betray secrets. To kill one, denotes that you will defeat sly enemies who seek to overshadow you with disgrace. To hear the howl of a wolf, discovers to you a secret alliance to defeat you in honest competition.

I was at an aquarium, and an employee was showing me the aquatic animals there, when, I felt super dizzy, because we were on a lift, and they were showing me the animals from above, so it would be easier for me to see them. Then, I lost my balance, and fell in the aquarium, when I lost consciousness, and passed out. Then, I woke up, and was in the hospital, when they told me that the reason that I had passed out was because of the height and, then, they said, there was nothing that they could figure out, so, they said that the only thing they could think of was that I was pregnant.

I dreamt I became able to turn the casino I work at into a beautiful home and that nature that once surrounded the area came back and took over. The full native women were angry with me that I could catch, clean, and cook the large fish I caught and that I could communicate peacefully with the wild creatures around me. The fishing became a contest and the bullying women were determined to get me to fail. Two of the actual full tribal men I work with- an elder male and a younger male defended me. When I caught the largest fish, the bullying women were screaming as they were pulled into the icy slush that had formed on the curvy rivers edge and disappeared. Crows,ravens,wolves, deer, and a large golden black bear gathered and celebrated me. The younger tribal male placed a hand on my left shoulder, smiled and winked, stepped back. Then the elder male placed his hands on both my shoulders, nodded at me and said, quietly "they could not survive because they could not remember their ways. You survived because you knew all along and your ancestors are pleased"
