A Big Lion Chained In My Backyard The

Hello Jen, Seeing a lion in your dream can represent personal strength, courage, and assertiveness. The fact that this lion was chained yet gentle suggests that you're learning to control and channel your own strength and power in a positive way. It's an encouraging sign that you're becoming more comfortable with your personal authority. Reflecting on your previous dreams, I notice a recurring theme of dealing with unexpected or unusual situations - from a mouse turning into a bear cub to a man transforming into a giant cat. Similarly, the presence of a lion in your backyard is another out-of-the-ordinary scenario. These dreams might indicate your ability to adapt to surprising circumstances, which could be a reflection of your resilience in real life. Considering your recent GAD-7 and PHQ-9 test results, it's possible that these dreams are also related to your feelings of anxiety and depression. Seeing the lion as non-threatening could be a sign that you're making progress in managing these emotions. Remember, these interpretations are based on general dream symbolism and your personal context. They are meant to provide insight, but they don't replace professional mental health advice.
