Dreaming about cats To see a cat and a snake on friendly terms is indicative of the beginning of a struggle. Beware, for unknowingly you are entertaining an enemy who does not have your welfare at heart, says Vinaya Katoch Manhas TO see a cat cry, when you are about to embark on a journey, is considered unlucky if its mouth is empty, and lucky if it is carrying some food in its mouth. This is a matter of individual belief. But such beliefs also extend to dreams. For instance among Egyptians, Bast the cat goddess, is generally portrayed as having two faces. Thus of seeing a cat, in one’s dreams is said to bring luck to the dreamer. As per a sect of western theologists, dreaming of cats denotes ill-luck if one does not kill it or drive it away from ones sight. If it attacks you, then you are warned about enemies who are out to tarnish your reputation. But if you succeed in scaring it away, then you shall overcome great obstacles and rise in fortune and fame. As per Hindu thought,
seeing a white cat is very lucky but seeing black one brings ill-will.
A saffron cat is also very lucky and brings luck for the dreamer. To
see two cats fight warns the dreamer to beware of enemies, and
troubled times. To see a thin and dirty cat brings bad news from
relatives who are far away. If you succeed in chasing it away then the
relative in question will come out unharmed from a bad experience. To
hear a cat scream and cry is again a forewarning of bad times ahead.
To dream of a cat that succeeds in scratching you, means that scheming
enemies shall succeed in their endeavours. To see a cat and a snake on
friendly terms is indicative of the beginning of a struggle. Beware,
for unknowingly you are entertaining an enemy who does not have your
welfare at heart. |

Psychoanalytically, dreams of cats link you to the more sensuous side of your personality. Such a dream, if seen by a woman, portrays dual facets of her personality, the capricious side and the elegant, powerful and self-confident aspect of her character. Let us take an example of this dual-natured symbol. A woman who is an animal lover and has had several cats as pets often dreams of the cats attacking her and then running away. But in the next instance she also sees them rubbing against her leg and playing with her. This dream portrays the dual nature of
felines — loving yet untrustworthy. This aspect of the cat’s
personality is something that every cat lover is well acquainted with.
Although the dreamer lover her pets, yet their unpredictability evokes
anxiety in her. This is the reason behind her dream. |
