A Dream of Survival and Instinct

A Dream of Survival and Instinct
Had a dream I was with some people, about 3-4 others in a big old beautiful house, maybe Victorian, maybe mountain? I do know that had big windows around front door and living room. The outside was covered in snow. In the distance off to the left of the house I could see stuff a long way off coming toward the house. It was a bunch of animals, many wolves but there were giraffes, lions, zebras or horses, and I think there were white hairy oxen. They all came up to the house and scattered around it. Next thing someone in the house was eating a pot roast with veggies that smelled great! I opened the 3/4 glass heavy dark wooden door with iron beading and beautiful artwork in it. It was cold. I stood outside with the door open and watched as something was coming from the right down a big hill. A single dark colored horse and rider racing towards the house but riding past and I saw a wolf chasing them. The rider yelled “red light” and the wolf stopped and sat down and stared at me. He stared with a sadness at first and then started to stare with an angry and hungry look. I looked left again and there was a stagecoach and a team of horses racing in behind them plowing snow and being chased and surrounded by wolves. Whoever was eating in the house came and stood by me and told them to get out of here because the wolves can smell it. I ran inside and slammed the door when I realized the wolf was creeping towards me. I woke up.

This dream may symbolize your inner struggle to survive and protect yourself from external threats. The big old beautiful house represents your sense of security and comfort, while the snow-covered outside signifies the harsh and unpredictable nature of the world. The animals, particularly the wolves, represent your primal instincts and natural drives. The pot roast and veggies symbolize nourishment and sustenance, which may suggest that you are seeking emotional or physical nourishment in your waking life. The dark wooden door with iron beading and beautiful artwork may represent a barrier between your inner self and the outside world. The horse and rider racing towards the house may symbolize a sense of urgency or danger approaching. The wolf chasing them may represent your fears or anxieties. The stagecoach and team of horses being chased by wolves may symbolize a chaotic and overwhelming situation in your waking life. The person in the house warning you to leave may represent your inner voice or intuition guiding you to safety. Overall, this dream may reflect your need to protect yourself and trust your instincts in the face of challenges and threats.
