Universal Landscape: Lack of life force.
Dreaming Lens: Was this a nightmare? Were you in danger? Were you a zombie or in danger of becoming one? Were there many or just one? Were you empowered to defend yourself or did you surrender to the zombie’s intention?
Personal Focus: The definition of a zombie is one who is no longer alive, but rises to walk again seeking human flesh to eat. The walking dead is a symbolic representation for those moments in life where the very process of living is devoid of any joy or vibrant energy. A zombie in a dream may signal a period of very low energy or a depletion of energy by some situation in your life.
The real danger of a zombie is their ability to transform their victims into zombies as well. In this way, they represent the cumulative effect of depression, fatigue, and a sedentary lifestyle. Additionally, they can also be an image inspired by a person or persons in your life that rob you of joy by virtue of their negative dispositions.
Zombies originated in the media. It is interesting to note that in the films in which they appear, they are seen as menacing and dangerous. This is despite the fact that their slow pace renders them essentially harmless as long as you can move faster than they do. Consider that a life without passion and vibrancy is a thing we fear greatly, both consciously and in our unconscious minds. Look at what in your life may be robbing you of these qualities. Your unconscious mind may be reminding you well in advance that a choice you have made (a job, relationship, living situation, etc.) may be slowly killing off joy.
[1]Any dream about about zombies - also called the living dead - may carry a powerful message to you.
