I dreamt when we were outside playing and going about our daily activities then suddenly a lion came roaring and chasing everyone in my dream, I wasn’t scared at all rather I remained still and calm I ran into my house with my family members but they all left me alone in the house and ran away for their dear lives, the lion came next to my door and stood outside but. when I noticed. it outside my house,
I opened the door and it remained calm,i was even touching it and playing with the lion ,we were even chatting but I can’t remember anything from the chat, I really enjoyed being with it.
dream female lion was friendly to female dog then lion turned on my dog.
I was so scared for my dog I woke myself up… The lion paid no attention to me.
My dream I was at work and i seen a lion coming through the back door so I stood there looking at the lion and it was walking towards me this lion was very humble walking slow so I started running in the meeting room then I came out that meeting room went to another one i seen about three four people running then my sister Charmaine and some more people was in another room calling me telling me to come in their room as I was running toward the room I woke up but one thing this lion was walking slow we was doing all the running 🤣
I dreamt that I was watching a lion eating comely a man’s left arm then up to his head. I was in some else bedroom watching from afar. Two twin beds one was a man the other the lion. It seems that the man was talking to the lion pointing hie left arm out to it. I think the lion did not like it. I was no too afraid but nervous maybe a little afraid.🥺😃. What does this mean? It was like I was a spirit in the room they could not see me. I was watching!
In my dream, Lions are extremely rare and its head is sought after. Somewhere In the middle of my dream, I found myself a tournament contender, and the championship trial was to get a lion’s head. I have a snail friend who can transfer himself into a graceful young man who was also my love interest (LOL). So it begins, minds you the lions here are extremely powerful and significant, most of the players we’re slain, and yes I was able to kill one with the help of my snail friend successfully. As I was cutting down the lion’s throat another creature showed up, I’m not really sure what it is but I remembered it has a long body, like a dragon or snake, then it started talking words I can understand but could not say them (I also forgot what they were) but I remember one thing, it wants to eat my snail friend (sad) and by listening to the words he was speaking, my heart went black (dunno why I can see my heart) and I feel very heavy, almost bursting at the same time it feels like I have lost sense of my being and the will to continue. I did help the creature eat my snail friend (literally crying). After that, I won the tournament and lived a miserable life. Most of the people I know avoided me and those I do not know always have something to say. I was riding a bus and I can sense the scrutiny from everyone then I heard a loud bang and that woke me up.
Thanks for writing these interpretations. I don’t remember entire dream but it was vague as I kept moving from a stationary place to a train to a cart running over a beach / seaside. I Dighe ku enjoy all the dolphin kinda fishes in distance and lot of people in boats etc and then see a big structure sailing from below… i turn back on left to see it’s a big dragon and it suddenly started scaring people (or attacking – didn’t see it). I look ahead and people are running saying there is a lion and my cart stops and look outside the window to see a young lion/lioness (wasn’t a grown cat with mane so could be going lion male or female. It wasn’t a cub either), looking back at me. So the whole area is shouting scares of that big cat and this cat gave a look in my eyes and i found it kinda cute. I mean I wasn’t scared of it though o aas scared the way people were shouting. And suddenly my son tried bending over and reaching out to touch the big cat to play with it as a normal kitten . I stop him to bend over but cat was calm in his/her eyes… just gave me a stare. And that’s it my dream broke. So 2 bug things, a dragon coming out from water and then lion cub/young one
I dreamed a lion was following me in kitchen and I had to to get on work tops & distracted with bag of crisps to escape
