My dream was about my parents that just buy a house in a place with great weather. The house was gorgeous and my siblings and I were ok there, but the house has a big pond full of alligators, so we couldn’t get in there and enjoy the pond. One night we walked by the corredor and one of the alligators saw us and ran faster towards us. Other alligators fallow too. I was impressed of how fast and big this alligator was. He could eat us but the fance stop him. So my parents and siblings left the house scared of this animals. I said to my parents “im not going back to that house, either you sale the house soon or kill all the alligators of the pond”. It was just dangerous to be in that house I didn’t like it at all. I was worried about everyone specially my younger sister.

The narrative was mostly coherent, following a logical progression of events from joy in the new house to fear of the alligators.

The Alligator Pond

The dream conveyed a sense of fear and worry, especially regarding the danger posed by the alligators.

The intensity was high, especially when the alligator charged towards the dreamer and their family, creating a moment of panic.

The detailed imagery of the beautiful house contrasted sharply with the threatening presence of the alligators, making the dream feel somewhat real.

The dream had a moderate level of vividness, with clear images of the house and the alligators, though some aspects felt less detailed.

Vivi, your dream about your parents buying a house in a place with great weather is rich with symbolism and reflects various aspects of your emotional landscape and familial relationships. The beautiful house represents a desire for stability and comfort, a place where you and your loved ones can thrive together. However, the presence of your siblings being ‘ok’ in this new environment suggests that while there may be superficial happiness, there are underlying issues that are not being addressed, particularly concerning your sense of safety and security within your family dynamics.

  The pond filled with alligators is particularly striking and serves as a powerful metaphor. Alligators often symbolize hidden dangers or repressed emotions lurking beneath the surface. The fact that you cannot enjoy the pond because of these alligators indicates that there are unresolved fears or anxieties that are preventing you from fully embracing certain aspects of your life. You may feel trapped or restricted by circumstances that, while seemingly positive on the surface (the beautiful house), have a darker undercurrent that cannot be ignored.

  When you describe the alligator charging at you, it reflects a sense of urgency and fear regarding these hidden dangers. The speed and size of the alligator could represent a looming threat or anxiety that feels overwhelming. This aspect of your dream may suggest that some issues in your life are escalating to a point where they can no longer be ignored.

Dream About Alligators In A Pond

Me and my friends were on a big boat that my friend owned touring the world, the boat got overtaken by alligators but we called them goblins. They filled the pool with bugs and poop.

The dream had a mix of coherent moments but also included disjointed elements that made it feel chaotic.

Alligator Adventure on a Boat

The dream felt adventurous yet unsettling as my friends and I navigated the chaos.

The intensity spiked as we faced the overwhelming number of creatures invading our space.

Despite the surreal scenario of goblins instead of alligators, the dream felt somewhat relatable due to the presence of friends.

The details were striking, especially the pool filled with bugs and the bizarre transformation of alligators into goblins.

Hannah, your dream of being on a big boat with friends, sailing through the world, reflects a strong desire for adventure and exploration in your life. The boat symbolizes a journey, perhaps one that represents your current emotional state or aspirations. Being surrounded by friends suggests that you value companionship and support in navigating life's challenges. This imagery of freedom and travel often indicates a longing to escape from the stressors that you face, particularly those related to financial pressures and health issues that you've experienced in the past. 

  However, the sudden invasion of alligators, which you referred to as goblins, introduces a stark contrast to this sense of freedom. Alligators can represent lurking fears or anxieties that threaten to disrupt your peace. The transformation of alligators into goblins might suggest that these fears feel exaggerated or perhaps even absurd to you, but they are still powerful enough to invade your joyful experience. This duality in your dream highlights the tension between your aspirations for joy and the encroaching feelings of anxiety that you frequently encounter.

  The scene where the pool is filled with bugs and excrement is particularly telling of your mental state. This imagery can symbolize feelings of being overwhelmed by negativity or toxic situations, perhaps reflecting internal struggles or external pressures that you've been grappling with. It may point to a sense of disgust or discomfort with certain aspects of your life, particularly those that relate to your mental health challenges, including your diagnosed anxiety disorders.

Dream About Boat Goblins And Alligators

I don’t remember all the details but my boyfriend and I are fighting a lot. He even left and slept in the other room and no matter what I said he didn’t care. He wouldn’t leave me but continued to do these things and make me want to hurt myself to feel better about it. I remember at when point in my dream I didn’t want to live anymore. I was just so hurt from the whole situation and didn’t understand why me? All I do is hurt and burden people so what’s even the point of me being here? The dream took place in this building for the most part but we ended up outside too and had to fight off some alligators. It was a lot going on but all I can really remember now is going back and forth with my boyfriend and never seeing eye to eye. All he does is tell me how terrible I am and neglects me so I feel even more unloved. It’s like I know I deserve better but I can’t find my will to live on my own

The dream was somewhat fragmented, shifting from indoor arguments to outdoor alligator fights.

Fighting with Boyfriend and Alligators

The dream was emotionally intense, with feelings of hurt, neglect, and hopelessness.

The intensity was high, especially during the arguments and the moments of self-harm thoughts.

Despite some surreal elements like fighting alligators, the emotional conflict felt very real.

The dream was fairly vivid, particularly the scenes of fighting and emotional turmoil.

Lynda, your dream is deeply reflective of the emotional and psychological turmoil you are experiencing in your waking life. The recurring theme of conflict with your boyfriend suggests that there are unresolved issues in your relationship that are causing significant stress and emotional pain. The fact that he leaves to sleep in another room symbolizes a sense of abandonment and rejection, which intensifies your feelings of loneliness and despair. 

  The dream's progression, where you express feelings of wanting to hurt yourself and questioning your own worth, is indicative of the severe impact that these conflicts are having on your mental health. This part of the dream reveals the depth of your emotional suffering and highlights the critical need for understanding and resolution within your relationship. Your feelings of being a burden and questioning the point of your existence point to an underlying sense of worthlessness and hopelessness that needs to be addressed.

  The setting of the dream, moving from an indoor building to an outdoor area where you encounter alligators, adds a layer of complexity. Buildings in dreams often represent the self or the mind, suggesting that the internal conflict you are experiencing is spilling over into other areas of your life. The alligators likely symbolize lurking dangers or fears that you feel ill-equipped to handle, further exacerbating your sense of vulnerability and helplessness.

  The recurring back-and-forth arguments with your boyfriend and his neglectful behavior in the dream parallels your waking life struggles, where you feel unloved and unappreciated.

Dream About Fighting Alligators And Relationship Issues

I was on vacation. We were at the beach then suddenly hundreds of alligators came and attacked everybody. We had to escape so we didn’t get eaten up. Then suddenly, my cousin came and saved the day, and all the alligators disappeared. 
Suddenly I was in my hotel room. I got undressed, and it was a man laying on the couch with a bear mask on his face. I got on top of him. I forced him to remove the mask from his face. He was cute. Then my ex-fuck friend came in and was a little bit sad because I was on top of another man, but he did say he didn’t care and went out. Then I seduce this bear mask man and had sex with him.

The dream had some coherence in terms of transitioning from the beach to the hotel room, but the presence of alligators and the man in the bear mask created a disjointed storyline.

Vacation and Alligators

A mix of fear from the alligator attack and excitement from the unexpected encounter with the man in the bear mask.

The dream was highly intense, especially during the alligator attack and the unexpected encounter in the hotel room.

The dream had elements of fantasy due to the sudden appearance of alligators and the man in the bear mask.

The dream was vivid with clear details of the beach, alligator attack, hotel room, and interactions with the characters.

Silje, your dream is a vivid tapestry of symbols and emotions, reflecting hidden aspects of your subconscious mind. The beach setting represents relaxation and emotional fluidity, disrupted by the sudden appearance of hundreds of alligators symbolizing primal fears or threats in your waking life. The need to escape signifies a desire to avoid or overcome these challenges to protect yourself. The intervention of your cousin as a savior suggests a source of support or strength in times of trouble, providing reassurance and guidance when facing overwhelming situations. This may reflect your inner resilience and ability to seek help when needed, even in unexpected ways.

My kids, a few family members and I , we were walking down to the springs together. As we were walking down the path, I saw there was an alligator in the water. My son was playing a game on his phone. I yelled out to him and said, Son, you need to be careful and pay attention because there's an alligator in the water.  He said, okay. We continued walking towards the springs. I looked over to speak to a family member. When I looked back, my son was walking into the water. He was not paying attention and the alligator was there waiting. As soon as he walked into the water, it just snatched him and pulled him down into the water. A couple of my family members hopped in the water and attempted to try to grab him, but they were unable to and the alligator took him away.

The dream was coherent and well-structured, with a clear storyline.

Alligator in the Water

The dream was emotionally charged with fear and anxiety, as the dreamer witnessed the danger their son was in.

The dream was highly intense, as the dreamer felt a sense of urgency and panic.

The dream felt very real, as if it were actually happening.

The dream was very vivid, with clear and detailed imagery.

Jazmin,

	Your dream reflects your deep-seated fears and anxieties about your son's well-being. The alligator in the water symbolizes a lurking danger or threat, while your son's inattention and subsequent disappearance into the water represent your worries about his vulnerability and potential harm. The fact that the alligator snatches him away despite your family's attempts to save him suggests that you feel powerless to protect him from unseen dangers.

	This dream could also indicate underlying concerns about your son's independence and growing autonomy. As he gets older, you may be struggling to let go and allow him to explore and make his own choices, fearing that he may encounter risks or challenges beyond your control. The dream highlights the tension between your desire to keep him safe and the need to foster his growth and independence.

	Given the intensity of your emotions and the negative feelings associated with this dream, it might be beneficial to consider exploring these concerns further. A therapist could provide a safe and supportive space for you to process these fears and develop strategies for coping with them. They can also help you navigate the challenges of parenting a growing child and finding a balance between protection and empowerment.

Alligator wearing a track suit and riding a bicycle I tried to set him free but all he knew was how to ride the bicycle so I kept him as a friend

The dream is somewhat coherent, as it has a beginning, middle, and end, but the alligator riding a bicycle is a nonsensical element.

The dream is moderately intense, as the dreamer is trying to help the alligator.

The dream is unrealistic, as alligators cannot ride bicycles.

Hi Kara,

	Your dream of an alligator wearing a tracksuit and riding a bicycle is quite fascinating! It seems like the alligator represents a part of yourself that is hidden or subconscious. The tracksuit and bicycle suggest that this part of you is trying to fit in or conform to societal norms, but it's still wild and untamed at heart.

	Perhaps there's an aspect of yourself that you've been suppressing or ignoring, and it's trying to find a way to express itself. This could be a creative or adventurous side of you, or it could be a more primal or instinctual part of your nature.

	It's interesting that you tried to set the alligator free, but it didn't know how to do anything but ride the bicycle. This suggests that you may be feeling conflicted about expressing this part of yourself. You might be afraid of what others will think, or you might worry that it will cause problems in your life.

	However, keeping the alligator as a friend is a positive sign. It shows that you're willing to accept and embrace this part of yourself, even if it's different or unconventional. This could be a journey of self-discovery and self-acceptance.

Dream About Alligator Wearing Track Suit Riding Bicycle

I can’t remember too much about how the dream started, but I was in a child’s body. It seemed like this child was native or definitely not from America. He was being put into a very stressful situation and was being forced to leave his home, but I was this kid. I was with the kids family and we were all running away. We got to these clear blue crystal clear waters that were beautiful but we were warned by a man near by that these waters are dangerous and we must pay a fee before entering and enslave ourselves to him. I remember just not caring, I was like, what’s the worst that can happen? The water looks fine! I dive right into the water and I can even see clearly in it. I stand up and do worry about alligators or snakes in the water but I don’t see any still so I continue. There’s a jungle around us and palm trees, we are definitely somewhere very tropical. Beautiful weather. But as I walk through the shallow waters the sand underneath is hurting my feet but I keep pushing through. At this point I’m not sure where the family went, but I end up in a dark and abandoned castle. I’m stuck in behind some bars in some sort of jail cell but in the castle, some man then comes in and is threatening me and this other girl there and some of my sisters saying we will never escape. We do end up escaping and I turn back into my normal self. The castle ends up being my moms and my stepdads but it’s strange because it’s dark and unkept which is nothing like them. They then tell me they are off to run errands and I say okay. I go to “my room” but there’s barely any light coming in and again… it just looks abandoned- I start thinking this can’t be my room can it?? I look out the window and I see the glorious weather and the crystal blue waters. I then have the urge to go to the bathroom. As I step into the bathroom and use the toilet I start thinking to myself that “wow I’m taking a very long time to pee” when I look down beside me to the right, there is a pile of dark towels… for some reason I relate the dark pile of towels to being someone I knew in middle school and the pile of towels starts to move!! I then go “Alan is that you?” So I hurry up and finish up in the bathroom and the pile stands up and morphs into Alan. He then takes off his hoodie and he says “yes it’s me” and he starts towering over me demanding sexual pleasure. I start to panic and hyperventilate…. It feels very real. I then find my voice and I start yelling at him and I tell him to back off!! Leave me ALONE!!!! And he listens. Before I could see his reaction I run out of the bathroom and into my room. I’m still very uneasy at this point and I lock my bedroom door. He tried to get in. But then I notice that I didn’t really lock the door and there’s clothing, and random things on the door blocking it. I keep thinking I have to move this stuff quick and then lock the door before he gets in. The door isn’t really strong anyways but I finally make a clear pathway and lock it. I start wondering around the room and observing how dark and messy it is. I then find a hallway attached to the other side of my room and I walk out and I see him standing there. I am frightened again I run back into the room and lock any other doors I see attached to my room. I realize there’s 3 doors total and I lock all of them. I hear my mom and the rest of my family come back home and I warn them someone is here that is unwanted. Then I wake up.

The dream had moments of coherence, such as the clear narrative of escaping to a tropical paradise and the recurring theme of feeling threatened, but it also had fragmented elements, like the sudden transition to the dreamer's home and the morphing of a pile of towels into a person from the past.

Escape to Tropical Paradise

The dream was filled with intense emotions, from the stress of escaping to the fear of being threatened by someone from the past.

The dream was highly intense, with moments of extreme fear and panic, especially during the encounter with the unwanted presence of someone from the past.

The dream had a mix of realistic elements, like the tropical setting and the sensation of pain from walking on sand, along with surreal elements, such as being in an abandoned castle that transforms into the dreamer's home.

The dream was highly vivid, with clear and detailed imagery, particularly in the portrayal of the tropical setting and the interactions with the threatening figure from the past.

Hello Yasmine,

	The dream where you find yourself inhabiting a child's body in a foreign and dangerous environment could be reflecting feelings of vulnerability or displacement in your waking life. The transition from the child to your adult self, along with the escape from captivity, may signify a personal transformation or a desire to break free from constraints that you feel are holding you back. The presence of your family, both in the escape and at the castle, indicates that these feelings might be connected to your home life or personal relationships.

	The dark and abandoned state of the castle, representing your mom and stepdad’s home, could point to underlying concerns about family dynamics or the stability of your home environment. The confrontation with Alan from your past and the ensuing panic attack might suggest unresolved issues or anxieties related to boundaries and personal safety. Your assertiveness in the dream, however, shows a strong sense of self-advocacy and the capacity to protect yourself from unwanted advances.

	Your previous dreams often involve themes of being watched or pursued, which can be tied to feelings of anxiety or a fear of losing privacy. This recurring theme, along with the familiar settings and people, suggests that recent experiences or long-standing concerns about personal security and autonomy are manifesting in your dreams. It’s important to consider these patterns as they may be reflecting deeper emotions or conflicts that are present in your daily life.

My children drowning being stalked by alligators

The dream was disjointed and fragmented, with sudden shifts in time and setting, making it difficult to follow a clear narrative.

Alligators Stalking Drowning Children

The dream was highly distressing, with overwhelming feelings of fear and anxiety about the children's safety.

The emotions and imagery in the dream were incredibly intense, leaving a lasting impact on the dreamer.

The dream felt very real, almost like it was actually happening, despite the fantastical element of alligators stalking the children.

The dream was very vivid, with clear and detailed images of the children struggling in the water and the alligators circling them.


**Dear Dreamer,**

	Your dream about your children drowning and being stalked by alligators carries significant emotional weight and may symbolize deep-seated fears and anxieties related to their safety and well-being. The alligator, often seen as a symbol of danger and lurking threats, might represent external factors or situations you perceive as posing a risk to your children.

	The theme of drowning suggests a feeling of helplessness and powerlessness in protecting them from these perceived threats. It could also reflect your fears about your children's vulnerability and your desire to shield them from harm.

	
It's important to remember that dreams are subjective and personal, and their interpretation can be influenced by various factors unique to you. If you're experiencing persistent anxiety or concerns about your children's safety, it might be helpful to seek support from a trusted friend, family member, or mental health professional. They can provide a listening ear and offer guidance during this emotionally challenging time.

Dream About Children Drowning Stalked By Alligators

I was sixteen and snuck out with my friends at night, we walked into the woods and lit a fire inside a metal trash bin and started smoking weed. After a few puffs I passed the joint to my friend and looked up at the full moon, I heard a wolf howl and a voice whispered "by the light of night, there will be fright." It sounded very distant. Moments later my friends disappeared and I went looking for them. I suddenly came across an obsidian waterfall and upon walking up to it, I found myself in a trance and I started walking behind the waterfall into a cave, as I walked I was undressing. Inside the cave it was pitch black but I could see a pool, still in a trance, I got into the pool, naked, and swam to the opposite side there was a really small hole slightly above the water. Suddenly the moonlight began to beam inside the cave and illuminate the small hole, an alligator head popped out and the mouth opened up showing smeagol's head and it yelled, "by the light of night there will be fright." I snapped out of the trance and swam back to the entrance grabbing my clothes and leaving from behind the waterfall, suddenly there was a howl and a blood curdling laugh and the same phrase was said again. There was a rumbling sound and then a huge tsunami. I ran to a fence but it was locked and too high to climb, the water from the tsunami finally reached me and filled up to the top of the fence and didn't go over or through the fence, I was under the water and couldn't breath, just as I began to lose consciousness the fence burst open and then I woke up.

The dream has a somewhat coherent narrative, with a clear beginning, middle, and end, but some elements, like the disappearing friends and the sudden tsunami, add a sense of disjointedness.

Obsidian Waterfall and Alligator Cave Fright

Fear and unease dominate the dream, heightened by the eerie whispers, mysterious waterfall, and alligator-Smeagol encounter.

The dream is intense and gripping, with a sense of danger and urgency building throughout the encounter with the alligator-Smeagol and the impending tsunami.

The dream is highly realistic, featuring detailed imagery of the woods, campfire, waterfall, cave, and alligator-Smeagol creature.

The dream is highly vivid, with clear and detailed imagery that brings the setting and events to life.

Hey Donytria! Thank you for sharing your dream with me. It sounds like a vivid and intense experience. The dream reflects a sense of rebellion and exploration, as symbolized by sneaking out with friends and engaging in activities like smoking weed. The full moon and the distant wolf howl represent a mysterious and potentially dangerous atmosphere.

	The obsidian waterfall and cave signify a transition into the unknown and a deeper level of consciousness. Undressing in the cave may suggest vulnerability or a desire to shed inhibitions. The pool represents emotions and the subconscious mind, while the small hole illuminated by moonlight reveals a hidden aspect or secret that emerges unexpectedly. The transformation of the alligator head into Smeagol's head could symbolize a confrontation with inner fears or conflicting aspects of your personality.

	The tsunami and the locked fence represent overwhelming emotions and obstacles in your waking life. Being underwater and struggling to breathe indicates a feeling of being overwhelmed or suffocated by circumstances. The burst fence signifies a breakthrough or finding a solution just in time, suggesting that there is hope and the ability to overcome challenges.

	Overall, this dream suggests a journey of self-discovery, facing fears, and finding resilience in difficult situations. It may be a reflection of your current life stage, where you are exploring boundaries, facing uncertainties, and seeking ways to navigate through challenges. Remember, dreams can be complex and personal, so trust your own feelings and intuition as you reflect on its meaning.

The dream was terrifying and left me feeling scared and vulnerable.

The dream felt very real, with the swamp, the alligators, and the pain of my leg being ripped off.

The dream was very vivid, with clear images of the swamp, the alligators, and the pain.

Hey Ruby! Thanks for sharing your dream with me. It sounds like a pretty intense and vivid experience. Let's dive into the interpretation.

	The camping trip with your family in a swamp during sunset represents a journey or exploration of emotions and experiences within your family dynamics. The swamp symbolizes a complex and challenging situation, possibly related to unresolved emotions or difficult circumstances. Going downstairs on the porch indicates a desire to delve deeper into these emotional aspects.

	The alligators attacking you and ripping off your right leg can be seen as a manifestation of fear, vulnerability, or a sense of being overwhelmed by certain aspects of your family life. It may suggest that you're feeling attacked or threatened by something within your familial relationships, which could be causing emotional pain or discomfort.

	Feeling the physical sensation of your leg being ripped off in real life within the dream indicates a strong emotional impact and the significance of this experience for you. It suggests that these family-related challenges are deeply affecting you on both an emotional and physical level.

	Overall, this dream highlights the need for you to address and confront any underlying issues within your family relationships. It's important to communicate openly and honestly with your family members, expressing your concerns and seeking resolution. Remember, dreams often serve as a way for our subconscious mind to process and bring attention to unresolved emotions or conflicts.

	I hope this interpretation resonates with you, Ruby.
