Hi
I hope someone can explain a strange dream that I have had a few times now. I dream that a cat is sticking its claws and its teeth into me and I can't get it off. Its claws are stuck in really deep and no matter how hard I try to pull it off, it won't budge. Its teeth are dug in really deep too. I try spinning it around to get it off but that doesn't work either. In my dream the cat is really sinister and it wants to do me harm. In the last version of the dream there were two cats sticking into my hands.
In my dream someone offered to kill the cats for me, but I didn't wantto do them harm.I wanted to ask it why it was attackingme (l was speaking to it like a cat whisperer). The cat started to recite a poem, but I was woken out of my dream before it finished. It was something about balance, and non duality but that is all that I remember.
That's my dream (nightmare actually!!)
I have read various dream dictionaries, and they say that the cat represents not being in touch with my feminine self, or that the cat is symbolic of latent psychic powers, or that the cat represents enemies trying to do me wrong.
Has anyone got any ideas, similar or otherwise? Thanks. It really is a curious dream.
Thanks

RE: Recurring attacking cat
hi,
very interesting nightmare.
i too dreamed, 2 years ago, of wild evil cats, kittens and other scary animals: I was perplexed upon waking as I am a nature-lover!
that occured over period of time, during which I was doing a job that took a lot of (negative) emotions out of me, and was in an environement that really clashed with my inner desires (being creative). I was dreaming of breaking free...
-- so maybe, the interpretation is correct and means that your feminine (creative/spiritual/reflective) side is being neglected and you should go back to it, ans stop denying it for reasonnable/financial reasons...
-- the ennemy translation: sounds plausible. it definitely transpires stress and agression.
-- is someone in your family/close circle ill? 4 months afterI had these dreams, I found my mother's health to deteriorate, and maybe she was unconsciously calling out for help...
that's all I can decipher, would love to hear what other people have to say.:)

Hi Fadette
Thanks for your reply. That's interesting that you had a similar dream. My dreams started happening when I was most unhappy with my work and at the time I went on leave from my job, which I was increasingly finding to clash with where I want to go in my life - severe frustration there!! I was supposed to be returning to that work, but am torn between doing so, and moving off into exciting pastures new - developing my creativity and putting myself in a vulnerable financial position. So, I guess that your interpretation along these lines is accurate. The second part is relevant too - definitely lots of stress going on for me right now.
I really hope the third part doesn't come true - I can't find any connection there at the moment. Hopefully this will last.
Anyway, whatever it is, it's pretty persistent!!!
Thanks again for your reply.
