Dream Meanings About The Caterpillar

Caterpillar - Dream Interpretation & Meaning

Vision: Seeing a caterpillar: new possibilities will open up—pay attention but be cautious. Watching several caterpillars: some people don’t have your best interests at heart, but be very careful. Things are turning out to be very different from what you expected. Catching or killing a caterpillar: your distrust in anodier person is justified—as you will soon find out.

Depth Psychology: You—or people around you—have hidden talents that will emerge later.

The caterpillar can also point to physical cravings, because it is “blind to the intellectual and spiritual dimension.”

[1]

1- The caterpillar appearing in a dream usually indicates that we are undergoing some form of major change. We may be being warned that we must undergo a complete metamorphosis. We must change and grow from what we arc now into a greater potential.

2- To dream of caterpillars would indicate that we need to remain flexible in our attitude to change. Also, because of the caterpillar’s association with creeping things, it may represent evil or difficulty.

3- The spiritual potential, largely unrecognised, which must transmute into something more beautiful.

This bug may represent a stage in your own personal growth and development.

The butterfly is a symbol of transformation; it represents a level of individual achievement.

The caterpillar, on the other hand, may indicate that you are on your way but have not reached your goal. You may be in earlier stages of accomplishing a real-life goal, a relationship goal, or even a spiritual goal.

The caterpillar may represent a specific area of your life or may be symbolic of the larger you.

[3]

Dreams of a caterpillar symbolize that you are in the midst of a great transformation, and that you are realizing the value of every stage of growth.

Caterpillars are the emblem of what has been corrupted. To dream of them is usually quite unpleasant and distressing. However, as you know, caterpillars turn into butterflies. This reminds us not to beat ourselves up because of our shortcomings. Not surprisingly, all creatures, including people, can eventually change and become beautiful and wonderful beings. (See Also: WORM, BUTTERFLY, METAMORPHOSIS)

[5]

Before the transformation occurs that leads to the butterfly, there is the caterpillar.

The caterpillar must do something tremendously courageous: it must willingly give up its own life. It has no idea of the miracle to come. When the caterpillar comes to your dream, you are being asked to consider total and utter surrender, to take a great leap of faith, trusting that miracles occur.

[6]

If moving to chrysalis stage, this suggests you may be moving towards making very profound life changes.

Caterpillars may also indicate a desire to withdraw from social activity.

[7]

Gives gender-specific: The caterpillar is a recognizable first symbol of the growth process.

In a man’s dream a caterpillar signifies the commencement of a journey of discovery about his spirituality.
