Lion in Dreams

Introduction to Lion Symbolism in Dreams

Dreams that feature lions are often layered with meaning, tapping into a rich vein of cultural symbolism and personal emotion. Traditionally, lions are seen as the kings of the animal kingdom, representing strength, bravery, and a commanding presence. However, the meaning of a lion in your dreams can vary widely depending on your personal experiences, cultural background, and the specific circumstances presented in the dream.

Why Lions?

In the realm of dreams, lions can emerge as powerful symbols. They might represent authority figures in your life, personal or professional challenges, or aspects of your own personality, such as leadership qualities or untamed aggression. Dreaming of a lion can be a subconscious reflection of how you handle power and strength, how you confront challenges, and how you assert yourself in various situations.

Personal Connection

To connect more deeply with what a lion represents in your dreams, consider your personal associations with these majestic animals. Have you always admired lions for their regal bearing and fearless nature, or do you see them as dangerous predators? Perhaps you have memories of visiting a zoo as a child or watching documentaries that influence how you perceive lions. These personal associations are crucial as they shape the unique symbolism the lion holds for you.

Exploring Your Lion Dreams

When a lion appears in your dreams, take a moment to recall the details.

Where and how does the lion appear? Is it in a wild setting, suggesting natural instincts and survival themes, or is it caged, hinting at controlled or repressed emotions?

Are you observing the lion from a distance, interacting with it, or perhaps even battling it? Your interaction with the lion can reveal your feelings towards a situation or relationship in your waking life.

What feelings do you experience during the dream? Fear, awe, admiration, or perhaps a mix of emotions? Identifying your emotional response can provide insights into your subconscious mind’s workings and how you might be dealing with power and aggression in your life.

Reflective Questions

As you ponder these elements, ask yourself. What current situations in my life might be influencing this dream? What does the lion’s behavior in the dream say about my own behavior or feelings in waking life? Is there a message or lesson that the lion is trying to convey in my dream?

Exploring Common Themes in Lion Dreams

Dreams about lions can manifest in various scenarios, each carrying its unique symbolism and potential messages for the dreamer. By examining some of the most common lion-related dream themes, you can start to piece together what your subconscious might be communicating through these powerful images.

Being Chased by a Lion

One of the most vivid and alarming types of lion dreams is being chased by one. This scenario typically invokes fear and a sense of being pursued. If you experience this dream, it may reflect feelings of threat or pressure in your waking life. You might be dealing with deadlines, competitive environments, or personal relationships that feel overwhelmingly dominant. Consider what aspects of your life are making you feel vulnerable or hunted.

Taming a Lion

Conversely, dreaming about taming a lion suggests control and mastery over challenging situations or emotions. This theme can symbolize a powerful moment of personal empowerment, where you are learning to handle significant responsibilities, overcoming fears, or managing a difficult aspect of your personality, like temper or impulsive reactions. Reflect on recent events where you felt you had gained control or had to exert a significant amount of influence or calm.

Protective Lions

If a lion acts as a protector in your dream, it may indicate that you are experiencing or in need of protection. This lion can symbolize a protective figure in your life or your own protective instincts—perhaps towards a family member or a project at work that you feel particularly passionate about. This dream might appear during times when you feel secure or, conversely, when you most need reassurance from external threats.

Lion at a Distance

Seeing a lion from afar can evoke feelings of awe or fear of the unknown. This dream might occur when you’re contemplating goals or challenges that seem out of reach or overwhelming. The distant lion could represent an aspiration or a significant obstacle in your life, prompting you to evaluate your readiness to confront or embrace big opportunities.

Engaging with These Themes

Each of these common dream scenarios not only reveals hidden feelings about your waking life situations but also invites you to engage more deeply with your inner emotional landscape. Ask yourself:

What is my initial feeling upon waking from these dreams?
Do these dreams encourage me to act differently in my waking life?
How can understanding these dreams help me to better navigate my personal or professional challenges?

  1. I dreamt two lions were trying to get in my house. They were hitting the sliding glass door with their paws hard enough that every time I almost had it closed it would come a bit ajar on me. I’d get it closed just in time. I was trying to hold it there, lock it and turn the little circle to keep it locked but they would hit the lock down just when I got it down and it would start to open. I needed another person to help me but my husband was asleep in the back bedroom and couldn’t hear what was happening. If they water to get in we’d all get killed. I barely kept them out but succeeded or I awoke at this point.
    I’m searching for meaning in this..

    • You dreamt of two majestic lions, powerful animals that represent the wild, untamed part of your psyche. These lions were attempting to break into your home, a symbol of your inner sanctum, the place where you feel safe and secure. The lions’ repeated pounding on the sliding glass door represents a force outside of your control that is attempting to gain entry into your life.

      The glass door itself represents the fragile barrier between the outer world and your inner self. You feel as though you’re barely able to hold the door shut, as the lions’ paws scrape and scratch against it, threatening to shatter it at any moment. You’re doing everything in your power to keep them out, but it’s a daunting task that requires all of your strength.

      Your need for assistance from another person suggests that you’re feeling overwhelmed and unable to handle this situation on your own. Even though your husband is physically present, he’s unaware of the danger that’s lurking just beyond the glass. This highlights a sense of isolation, even when surrounded by loved ones.

      It’s essential to remember that dreams speak in the language of symbols, and the lions in your dream may represent an aspect of yourself that is currently lying dormant or suppressed. They may symbolize your need to tap into your inner strength, assertiveness, and courage to overcome a challenge that is currently beyond your control.

      Think about what this dream may be telling you. Are you currently facing a situation that requires you to be more assertive? Do you feel as though you’re constantly battling forces outside of your control? Perhaps you’re facing an internal conflict that is making you feel vulnerable and exposed.

      One technique for deciphering a dream’s meaning is to imagine yourself back in the dream and change the outcome. In this case, try imagining yourself opening the door and allowing the lions to enter. What happens next? Does the dream take a turn for the worse, or do you emerge unscathed?

      By examining the outcome of a dream, you can uncover what it’s trying to tell you. In this case, allowing the lions to enter may represent embracing the wild and untamed parts of yourself that you’ve been keeping hidden. By confronting your fears and taking charge of your life, you may find that you have the strength to overcome even the most significant challenges.

  2. I fell asleep and dreamed I was in a house that was home and in my bedroom was a lion sleeping on a bed. Lions were in other places in the house, sleeping, cleaning their faces. I felt no fear, but I was cautious My cats were sleeping with them and so I felt it was OK to sleep with them in my room. I knew they would not hurt me/ In a spare room was a wild cat that did attack me but stopped and huddled around me, as if sorry.

    • The lion is a powerful symbol of strength, courage, and leadership. In your dream, the lion may represent your inner power and strength that is currently lying dormant or suppressed. By being comfortable around these powerful animals, you’re displaying a level of inner strength that can help you in waking life.

      The fact that you felt no fear but were cautious is interesting because it suggests that you’re not afraid of power, but you’re also not reckless in the face of it. This may be a reflection of how you handle situations in waking life, where you’re comfortable taking risks, but you also consider the consequences.

      Your cats sleeping with the lions may represent your ability to integrate different aspects of your personality. Cats, known for their independence and intuition, may represent your feminine side, while the lions represent your masculine side. By integrating these aspects, you’re creating balance in your life.

      The wild cat in the spare room that attacked you but then huddled around you may represent a part of yourself that you’ve been suppressing or ignoring. This part of you may be wild and untamed, but it also has the potential to show remorse and seek reconciliation.

      Reflect on what this dream may be telling you. Are there aspects of your personality that you’ve been suppressing or ignoring? Do you feel as though you’re not tapping into your full potential? Perhaps you’re struggling to integrate different parts of yourself or create balance in your life.

  3. I had a dream that I was running on a trail at night and realized I forgot my headlamp. (I do run in waking life) The darkness was a bit frightening , then I saw a mountain lion walk out of the bushes. Where I live, this could actually happen. I froze and looked at the Mountain Lion, but she meant me no harm. She walked up to me and allowed me to pet her as house cat would. Together we turned and began to run up the trail when I saw a male lion with a mane. He too was gentle and allowed me to pet him. Further up the trail, I saw a man. He looked as if he was hiding from me. I feared him more than the lions. I kept the lions close and as another runner approached I warned her of the man.

    • The setting of your dream—a trail at night, enveloped in darkness—immediately places you in a scenario that blends familiarity with the unknown. Running, an activity you partake in during your waking hours, becomes a metaphor for life’s journey. However, the absence of your headlamp, your source of guidance and visibility, suggests a journey into the unlit corners of your subconscious. It’s here, in this vulnerability, that you encounter not just your fears but also your untapped strengths.

      The appearance of the mountain lion, an element of real potential danger in your waking world, transforms within the dream landscape. Rather than a threat, this majestic creature becomes a symbol of untamed power, instinct, and grace. The fact that you freeze and then engage with the mountain lion, finding harmony and even companionship, speaks to your ability to confront and embrace aspects of yourself or your life that may initially seem intimidating or insurmountable. The mountain lion, often seen as a guardian of the natural world, reflects your inner strength and the protective instincts you hold.

      The narrative takes a fascinating turn with the arrival of the male lion. Unlike the indigenous mountain lion, this figure is more out of place, its presence on the trail an anomaly. The male lion, with his regal mane and association with courage, leadership, and authority, may represent a different aspect of power—perhaps more societal or external. His gentleness, allowing you to pet him, suggests that the forces and influences in your life that could wield power over you are accessible and can be approached with confidence and calmness.

      The most intriguing character in your dream is the man who appears to be hiding. This figure introduces a stark contrast to the animal encounters. Despite the potential danger represented by the lions, it is the human element that stirs fear within you. This transition in your dream might symbolize a perception that the complexities of human intentions and social interactions are often more daunting and unpredictable than the raw, straightforward instincts of the natural world. The man hiding could embody anxieties related to trust, vulnerability, and the unseen threats in human relationships.

      As you continue along the trail, your act of warning another runner about the man, not the lions, underscores a sense of community and protectiveness. Even in the realm of dreams, your instinct is to care for others, suggesting a deep-seated value of empathy and guardianship in your waking life.

  4. I dreamed about a lion and lioness sleeping peacefully next to each other. Could this symbolize my own relationship with my partner?

    Reply
    • Your dream of a lion and lioness sleeping peacefully beside each other is a vivid and potent image, rich in symbolism and depth. The lion, as the king of beasts, embodies a sense of power and dominance, while the lioness, equally strong, is often associated with nurturing, community, and the protection of her pride. Their presence together in your dream suggests a partnership that is balanced in both power and tenderness, reflecting a mutual respect and a shared domain of love and responsibility.

      The peaceful slumber of these majestic creatures next to one another signifies harmony and contentment. It speaks to a relationship where there is a profound sense of security and trust, allowing both partners to rest easy in each other’s presence. Just as the lion and lioness lie together without fear, so too does this dream suggest that you and your partner feel a deep sense of safety and belonging with one another, a sanctuary within the relationship where the challenges of the outside world cannot disturb the peace.

  5. I dreamt dead zebras and dead snakes were in a tree, some of the snakes (dead) were on the ground. As I was navigating from under the tree two lions where playing and they were all over me and bumping into me. I wonder what it means?

    Reply
    • The presence of dead zebras and snakes, especially in such an unusual setting as a tree, is a powerful symbol. Zebras, with their distinctive black-and-white stripes, are often seen as symbols of balance, unity, and the blending of opposites. However, their appearance in your dream in a lifeless state could suggest a disruption or challenge to this balance in your waking life. It may represent areas or aspects where harmony is sought but not yet found, or it could symbolize the loss of vibrancy and vitality in certain dimensions of your existence.

      Snakes, on the other hand, are rich in symbolic significance. They are creatures of transformation and rebirth, shedding their skin to emerge anew. Their presence in your dream, also lifeless and intertwined with the dead zebras, could point to a transformation that has been stalled or aspects of renewal that have yet to be realized. The snakes on the ground, separate from those in the tree, might indicate that these changes or renewals are within reach but require attention and effort to actualize.

      Navigating under this tree laden with symbols of halted transformation and imbalance, you encounter two lions. Unlike the static and somber imagery of the tree, these lions are alive, vibrant, and in motion, interacting with you directly. Lions are emblematic of strength, courage, and authority but are also protectors. Their playful behavior, bumping into you, suggests a lively, perhaps disruptive, force entering your life. This force, unlike the inertness of the zebras and snakes, is dynamic and engaging, urging you to interact with the challenges and changes you face.

      The juxtaposition of the dead animals in the tree and the vivacious lions on the ground speaks to the dual nature of our lives and our psyches. It reflects the coexistence of stagnation and vitality, decay and growth. The dream seems to suggest that while certain aspects of your life or self may seem dormant or lost, there is an inherent strength and potential for renewal and playfulness within you. The lions’ interaction with you could symbolize the inner power and courage you possess to engage with life’s challenges, to bump against the obstacles, and to move through them with resilience and vigor.

  6. I had a dream with lioness and their Cubs laying around in a circle with bears and their Cubs. They all seem to be playing with each other and getting along. Then 2 of the young male lions started to chase me. I didn’t feel scared but I did run and then I woke up. I have been having dreams with animals. I had a black panther, a hyaena, lioness and their Cubs and bears in the same dream. They were outside my home they were all laying down relaxing. They did not show any aggression.

  8. I was in an open field.
    In the far distance I saw a Lion running in my direction; at first I feared not.
    As he neared with his continued speed I realized he may be after me…
    I began to run checking over my left shoulder watching has a gap closed between us and listening to the strength of his approach.
    There was no out running him; my anxiety was extreme.
    Then he was there just feet behind me… I started to feel stronger and was running faster-
    Seemingly empowered at his presence
    The two of us were running side-by-side
    The king was at my left and I was on his right-
    Like partners in the wild

    What ever could this mean??
    Anything?
    Are dreams just dreams
    or
    Do they signify something??… Have a greater meaning or message within??

  9. I am a Christian and last night I had a dream. In the dream I saw a beautiful huge golden lion that was in the room with me. I was kind of scared but the lion was looking at me and up close to me but yet I felt he was my friend I felt he was protecting me. I remember the lion walking back and forth across the room and I also remember laying down with a blanket and turning my back to him to go to sleep. I felt peaceful. The lion was not aggressive but gentle and kind. Earlier in the dream when I say he was looking at me I felt I knew who he was yes I was kind of scared but I felt love for him at the same time. I believe it was Jesus letting me know that everything will be ok and he is protecting me. I don’t know what this dream means.

  10. First of all, my wife is has veryserious form of cancer. In my dream, I looked out the window and saw our cat lying with several lions on the lawn in our backyard. I went out, snatched up the cat and moved quickly toward the back door of our house. I reached the house, with the lions right behind me. I held them at the door and grabbed a bottle of some kind of chemical and sprayed them, which seemed to have no effect. My wife then crashed through the back door with another gentleman and both were in a frenzy. I ran to get my gun, but it was not there. I asked my wife if she knew where it was. She said she moved it to a shelf downstairs. I ran downstairs and found the gun missing from it’s case, at which time I awoke. Thank you in advance for any input you might offer.

  14. I dreamt that a pride of lions were posted up on the hill behind my grandparents house. Uninterested in coming down to kill us but forbidding us to come to the hill any longer. Or at least I felt that way. Even in sleeping life I don’t want to mess with a pride of lions. It was a powerful dream, extremely clear.

There was a giraffe who stretched it’s neck out behind my kids bed and a lion that I had to hold back with a stick from getting out. The hyena snuck out and was riding on my back and when I turned around it looked at me.

  18. I was with a vet. And we soon got word two lions escaped. They were angry, coming after the vet. It was a male and female. The female entered the room we were in. The vet scrambled to get the sleeping dart. She shot her several times. We tied the lions mouth with some gauze and medical tape. We then began to tie her paws front and back. The vet told me to take over that she needed to find the male lion. As soon as the female noticed the vet was leaving she tried to get loose and the tape was coming off her mouth. I tried to get something like a rope while pinning the lion down. The lion was chewing on my thigh and it hurt. The vet was no longer with me. Once i completely tied up the lion and sure it was immobile i left to help the vet. The male lion came up after me and i shut em in a room. I found the vet and let her know. She went and opened the door to shoot em with the dart but he chased us in a bathroom. He was so strong swiping his paw in the door preventing us from closing it. There was a lock and it was used after a second try of finally closing the door. Suddenly i was in a hallway with the large lion and his mane was so shiny and full, he looked magnificent. I said shes in trouble we will get the vet later. I then asked the lion his name several times. After an exhale he replied, Isaac.

  21. I had a dream/vision that an old radiant bright white lion came to me. At first he just layed down by me and looked at me. startled me for a second because I wasnt expecting a lion to come up and lay down in front of me. He was friendly and I wanted to feed him. so I stroked his mane and took him towards the house. The dog went nuts standing on his hind legs barking and pulling on his chain, however the lion just passed him just happy to be by my side. It made me nervous for a brief moment thinking the lion may eat my dog. But the lion purring loudly sat by my side and I feed him from my hand. I was happy. The glowing white lion was happy…. i woke up

  22. I had a dream where I was on a compound of a house and I saw a family of about 5 walking away towards East and when they turn and saw me they were shocked and surprised and most of all afraid for me. They went ahead and started running, they couldn’t talk for fear of making noise. Then I saw a house of light on my right side and wanted to go in but the gate was locked just then I realized I have gone hiding in a bush for what reason I have no idea.Then, I squatted, just then I saw a lion come pass, then another, then about three running passing by behind where I have squatted and the initial two who probably were the head of the lion group in the dungeon, came up and were sitted on the compound where i was standing, even though from the onset I have not been scared however was only silent, this time I was more unafraid, got out of my hiding place, and came up towards the lions, when they saw me, they also started coming up towards me and when they got to me then they shook my hands and laughed with me and i was over joyed, laughed with them they said I could go. So I took the left road and realized I was in a very big house with elderly women or old women, it seamed there was a feast and they were preparing for it which I was asked to pick a utensil that had jollof rice in it so I did and feels like I put some in my mouth but then one of the old women was giving me facial expressions meaning she doesn’t like me so one of the remaining three asked me if I know her and I said no and she too was asked why she was looking at me in that manner or is it that she doesn’t like me? and she answered yes, she doesn’t like me and I just looked on and left.

  24. I have had 3 lion dreams in the last 3 weeks. The first two being chased. My sign is a Leo and last night’s dream was about trying to hide my lion pride. Whenever someone would show their pride, the ground would break open and some monster like animal would try to swallow up the person. I was constantly trying to save people, their objects and was escaping with my parents and brother via car with mini trailer that somehow traveled on railroad tracks. We were searching for gas and food throughout at random houses througout the vivid dream. People were constantly being killed along the way and we were trying to keep feelings hidden.

  30. Lion dream

    I was with a married couple (my cousins) in the upstairs of the house (that seemed like aunt’s house in a deteriorating neighborhood) looking out the window because we were startled by pounding on the front downstairs porch which turned out to be a pack of lions including males but I’m not sure if I saw females. They were milling back-anOd-forth across the street where a bunch of kids were on the porch playing. They were not attacking the children but obviously the children were intently aware of their presents but they did not try to run away. Somehow some of them and or other big cats got into the house with our family which suddenly became stark modern white kitchen and dinette area similar to another aunts house. Mom and my 5 year old daughter and older brother were present as were others I cannot recall. I put Daughter up on the kitchen counter separating the dinette so she wouldn’t get hurt. other people were up on the counter as well but still interacting kind of in a normal fashion while at the same time trying to avoid interaction with the cats . Someone and myself on the dinette side proceeded to carry-on with conversation while at the same time being intensely afraid of their antics like walking right up to us getting really close pulling on drawer handles. I woke up with my heart pounding.

And I remember that my dog Abby was in the dream as well and I spoke to the lions saying “please don’t hurt her” and they understood. It was my home n my family but the lions were like our pets. Anyone interested in enter interpretating?? Thank you

  39. I was walking from my husband barracks and I saw a kid riding his bike while walking . The kid stopped talked to me then gave me his bike and I started riding it towards where I live but everything started to become unfamiliar , like im in a neighborhood and riding past houses. Then a dirt road ahead was in my view. So I kept riding and I saw a female lion attacked and killed another lion. I was right next to her and a baby (2yrs old ) reach out his hands so I picked him up. The lion didnt scare me at first. Then the lion started coming closer and the baby told me to go. So I ride the bike and I told the lion to leave us alone, f*** off. Then the lion said ” watch your mouth” that scared me so I rode faster and the lion kept running at the back of me.. I turned around again and she said ” watch your face” it scared me even kore. So I was just trying to get away

  40. found myself in an unfamiliar large older house laying down sleeping and awoke to find lions laying down all around me and as I was exiting rooms opening the doors the lions were leaving the house with me passing me one at a time. the next thing I know I am outside and I come across a noticeably older lion. this lion begins to talk to me which prompts me to ask the question “how is it that you an animal can talk?” I get a curious look from the lion and she walks away and I awoke

  41. This is just a very specific part of my dreaming that was very vivid and I knew it was significant and important to remember . I dreamt that I was on a tarmac path when I walked into a clearing that was green and grassy. I saw a dead lion and was surprised but not afraid to see it there. I looked around and saw that there were seven dead lions in total. I was not afraid, sad or relieved, I just felt very calm but didnt understand what was happening. Can anyone help with the meaning of this dream please.

  42. I had quite a few dreams of a lion when I was 3-5 yrs old that I have never forgotten ( I’m 30 now) I used to dream of a large lion with a big mane in bedroom I remember in the dream I was always in bed but never moved frozen as such. It never attacked me vaguely remember the lion approaching my bed few times out of all dreams Ive had through life this stands out the most

  44. I had a dream me and my ex boyfriend was in a corner. There was only 2 ways we could go. Left or right. On our left side was a huge female tiger, on our right side was a young lion. We decided to go right because it would be easier to get pass. We grabbed each each other’s hand and ran past it, it didnt try to attack us, it just laid there so I thought it was dead. We kept running into a field and there were a group of many other lions that were beautiful but they were ready to attack us. For some reason I was more worried for my ex than myself. We ran into this jungle/fprest like place and we kept running and dodging lions trying to survive. It seemed as if there was no way out. Everytime it look like we were about to escape, more lions would appear. While we were a running a stranger whose face and body I couldn’t see well helped me escape the femallion that was strictly after me. The female lion was running in front of me but it kept trying to snap back at me. Eventually we escaped it. We ended up in a tree with a long narrow limb stretching out. I thought it would not ffhold us but it did. I felt worried because I knew that the lions would climb the tree. So we jumped down and the stranger disappeared. I noticed that I was making all the decsions in the dream. And my ex just had my hand following me. We continued running and dodging the lions. Then this brown dog appears and it never left my side while we were running. And that was the end of the dream. It was weird because me and my recent ex was together but we broke up last week. I also saw a lot a baby blue, black , red and grey colors in the dream.

  47. I have never dreamed of lions in my life. I’m in my 40s now and I just had a dream of running away from something else into a wide open grassland and then into a group of lions that were not friendly, but they weren’t roaring and they didn’t attack. It just felt like they might and I didn’t feel safe. Then, a male lion came at me and I spun around and around with him like he kept trying to get behind me, but I wouldn’t allow it. I held his mane and we wrestled like that until he moved off. It didn’t feel like I ‘overcame’ him or defeated him. And at the end I was still among the lions, lionesses, now, and I felt threatened, but not afraid. The dream scares me more than the idea of being eaten by lions. I know it signifies something, but I really can’t see what it means. The fact that I have never dreamed of lions in my life also makes it quite significant to me. Help? Please?

  50. I had a “bad dream” whereas a male lion was prowling outside of my house …although in my dream it was not the way my house really looks. The lion was trying to find ways to get in the house ..mit was very smart ..it knew to try the window it knew to chk the side doors it even knew if it jumped up on top of the car it could jump high enough unto the porch ….Once it was by the front door which was a cheaply made screen door made of tin like materail …I was holding the door shut with my 2 feet ..I was sitting on the ground …I was yelling for my Husband to help me hold the door but he completely ignored my cries for help…i was yelling so loud trying to get him to come and help…in the dream it as tho he wanted the Lion to get me…The Lion was not at his full size and there were others outside of this complex I lived in…I started yelling out to them that therd was a lion on thd prowl…eventually the lion made its way jnto my home…I was seeking shelter trying to find a door strong enough to hold the lions strength. My husband was a layinv in a bed pretending to sleep as I ran through the room searching for shelter….This dream is very disturbing to me and I am still shakened by it. What do you think it means.

  51. Hi, everyone.

    I had a dream that I was in school, which in real life I’m done with. I am studying for my medical boards right now. So anyways, I was in school and we had lions around us, they were trained and as if it was part of the curriculum to have them around and play with them. One lion one day got out of control but didn’t harm anyone. People started running and I did as well. I finally found a good place to hide and I took a two year old girl with me. I have a two year old daughter in real life . So in my dream after a while I come out and I see the principle laughing. I ask him how come you are laughing at this time in sucha horrible situation. He said look we were scared of the lion but here the choas drove people insane. I turn around to see that one student is dissecting the other and eating him at the same time. So please tell me know what you guys think ! Thank you so much !

  52. Last night I dreamt I was in a school field with two people I lnew (unclear who). A male lion approached and i told the women to be still. One listened and was unharmed, the other did not, but i could not see what happened to her. Suddenly it was three male lions, chasing one another in circles around me, but not harming me. I vividly remember thinking in my dream, “have they killed me? Please let me be safe.” And then i woke up. I have never had such a dream before. Any help, greatly appreciated.

  53. my dream is of me walking outdoors near some trees and as i walked under a massive tree with a sun and blue skies as texas would have with green grass all around i perceived that something was above me within the tree it was as if i was coming from out of a meadow into a tree line or just in a lightly wooded area with trees so as i walked about ten to twenty more feet ahead of the tree; i turned around to look up and i noticed what i perceived as a female lioness or it was a teenage cub or adult female lion had peace with her/him and was just looking at me with eyes that were loving it truly had no energy of danger or trouble and i awoke soon afterwards with prayers of thanksgiving and rejoicing in god to me this was an amazing peaceful calming positive dream and it would be nice if someone has the gift of prophecy from the holy spirit who may have a revelation for me to discern thank you.

  57. What does it mean?
    I had a dream that I was a vet or zookeeper of some sort. I was helping(examining) a male lion in its enclosure … he was sleeping (tranquilized perhaps). Somehow, I got locked in with him overnight. When I realized I was locked in (with no one around to help), he woke up. He came after me, not to attack, but to play, yet I was terrified. He kept pawing at me, and I was saying “no” “off” “down” as though he was my dog…. again I was terrified- literally to the point of not being able to breath. He kept trying to “play” with me, rub up against me like a regular cat (knocking me over at times). Finally he tried to give me a full sized lion hug and I woke up (very upset & scared)

  58. I had a dream that I had a lioness as a pet. We were best of friends and she was very gentle with me. She was my baby and loved me. Super big but still wanted to be carried. I became worried when there was an event at the local college because this would frighten her and it meant I could not take her there by any means since there would be animals that may act up because of her. There was an element of sadness in my dream like I had to let her go.

  59. I had a lion chasing me and my family along with other guests in a hotel by the ocean. There were some helpful employees and some that didn’t care. There was a train or subway as well that took you from area to area. I was terrified of the lion but I kind of liked the life or death challenge to defy him and save my family. I didn’t leave… I could have run away at any time. Weird.

    Any ideas?

  64. My dream takes place in a very unfamiliar place.. Like we were in a new state. It’s me & my husband… We walk over to some sort of gathering or convention (outdoors). I introduce him to Chelsea Handler (I don’t have a clue why her lol) but she obviously found him attractive and I didn’t like that. Shortly after that all the lights went out. Her, my husband and a group of others walked across the way to check out what happened. It was like we were in some type of outdoor gazebo. I waited too long and stuck my head out looking in their direction. As I looked, I can see a bunch of lionesses, their dark figures in the night. I yelled towards them in warning of the lions. Slowly I noticed the lions were making their way in. I remember grabbing them and slamming them on the floor, hearing their neck snap and killing them. And in my thoughts ot hurt me to do it because I love lions. I love big cats. After killing a few, I remember thinking where is the male. I turned and saw him outside the gazebo eating “something”. Out of nowhere, there’s a house… I climb in to find it being a house I been to before. All of a sudden its me and a female friend inside. We locked ourselves in a room because there were cubs in the house and all the lions were surrounding us outside. It was like they were waiting for me. I keep trying to find a way out the window to escape them. Eventually my friend told me she sent these lions to get me because for some reason she was jealous and thought i was doing her wrong in not being there for her or something like that…. I then woke up.
    When i went back to sleep… I dreamt there was a group of men out to kill me and my husband after finding out we just inherited a home that was like an amusement park of some sort.

    I don’t know if the dreams are some how related to the same thing. I’m just curious to know if there’s any meaning behind them.
