Pig

Pigs do not have an easy life. It ends fairly quickly in the slaughterhouse, and what is more, bad people are unjustly compared to these animals. These facts are reflected in the way European dream books explain the dream about a pig.

The dreamer is a pig

• If you are a pig in your dream, the dream is a clear allusion to your wicked behavior, bad manners or low drives. Perhaps you are guilty of treason, theft or gossiping about someone.
• Another explanation of the dream in which you are a piglet or a sow is associated with sloppiness, dung and dirt. The dream may suggest that you should take more care of personal hygiene and cleanliness at home or place of work.
• There is one more explanation of the dream in which the dreamer turns into a pig. It is particularly important for obese people who have probably heard the terms "pig", "sow", "hog" etc. more often than not. The dream in such cases reflects low self-esteem due to being overweight, complexes or warns against excessive eating.

As it was mentioned, pigs are unjustly understood as a symbol of laziness, obesity or greed. In many cultures, the pig plays a much more positive role. It is the symbol of fertility, motherhood, happiness, or money. As an icon of fertility, it was worshiped in Egypt, Mesopotamia, Scandinavia or the Celtic countries. Therefore, a dream in which a pig feeds its young can have a particularly positive meaning for mothers or women waiting for offspring.
