I had a dream I was in a house and my black cat was bit by a huge snake.

The house was mine but I never been there before. I was trying to prevent the snake from entering the house but I could not manage to close the door completely. The snake came in and roamed the house, then it bit my black cat that was resting on top of the sofa. It bit the cat 3 times and my cat scurried off. I woke up after telling my boyfriend in my dream what had happened. A week later I had another dream. Again in a an unknown huge apartment and didn't know what room was what. I walked the foyer of the apartment and opened the door there were inspects, and little lizards everywhere. I was so scared but I notice I tip toe out with fear but not wanting to step on them. Finally as I'm walking the foyer opposite the direction, there was lobster in a waterless tank the tank had an opening where the lobster's claw could fit through. As I passed the tank the lobster tried to clamp me with it's claw. It only manage to slightly tough me making me turn around and look at it. That's when I woke up. In both dreams I was scared. What does this mean??

    Hi Dolly,
    When we dream of something or someone invading our home, it can have to do with feeling like our boundaries have been crossed. If I were working with you personally on this dream, I would ask you what your associations are with snakes and cats. Since I cannot ask you direct questions (though feel free to respond to this post), I can take an archetypal approach. Looking at it in a universal way, snakes COULD represent male sexuality, and a cat COULD represent feminine sexuality. This would make me curious if there were something going on w/your boyfriend (or someone else) where you might be feeling a bit ‘invaded’ (i.e. the home invasion by the ‘snake’) and/or hurt or criticized by him or someone else (the snake biting the cat). The word 'snake' can have a double meaning too, like when we call someone a snake it implies they are not trustworthy.
    You might also want to think back if there is something someone has done possibly 3 times to 'hurt'or 'attack' you (emotionally, not necesarily physically) since the snake bit the cat 3 times.

    In the next dream, the presence of so many bugs could indicate that something (perhaps this same situation) is ‘bugging’ you. Dreams love puns and plays on words, so again w/out consulting with you, this would be a generalization that may or may not apply. In the dream you ‘tip toe out, with fear'. So ask yourself, do you feel like you have to ‘tip toe’ around something (or someone) in a fearful way? And once you make it through that, the lobster claws at you. This seems to be an echo of the snake biting the cat, and also of escaping the bugs.

    The good news is that in all of these situation you (and the cat?) seem to come out ok. The fact that you woke up scared indicates that these dreams are trying to get your attention about some matter in your life. Think if there is someone (or something) that is causing you to feel scared. like I said without talking to you directly I am only tossing around ideas…you will know what resonates with you. Feel free to reply here if you’d like, or if you prefer you can email me privately at: mimi@thedreamdetective.com

    One last thing: Since this is a recurring dream and these 2 happened a week apart, see if you can notice a connection between what was going on the day(s) before these dreams, and if you can connect the dots. For example, if one (or both) of the dreams happened on a Wednesday night, what did you do on that Wednesday?

    I hope this helps and thanks for sharing your dream,
    Mimi
