Running away from an elephant

Dreaming about running away or escaping from an elephant, especially if it is being aggressive towards you could be a symbol of resilience. There could be people who are trying or would soon try to restrain, limit or control you. They would do so by criticizing you, giving you orders and bossing you around. They would believe they were right about everything, and that you knew nothing at all. However, you would be able to resist their restrictive pressure and controlling behavior. You would successfully free yourself from their influence. This dream could also reinforce your course of action. That is, it could suggest that you would benefit from actively and outwardly opposing and resisting their domination. This is the only possible reaction to such treatment. Otherwise, you could see your individuality, creativity and personal power be crushed in front of you. You could end up being or feeling that you were nothing and had no value. That is, the dream advises you to fight back.

An angry elephant killing people

An angry elephant running and chasing people, at times killing other people also. Once or twice in a month I get this dream. What does it actually mean?

Dreaming of an angry or aggressive elephant means a powerful or influential individual is giving you a lot of problems. It is a recurring symbol in your dreams because you do not know how to handle this person and manage the challenges brought upon you. You are afraid of confronting this person because you probably feel inadequate or powerless during your encounters. However, it looks like you are stressed out by all the hindrances, inconveniences and obstacles in your way because of this particular personality, so your subconscious is encouraging you to face your fears and become more assertive. This way, you can resolve the source of your anxieties once and for all.

An elephant getting inside the house

A calm elephant becomes aggressive suddenly and tries to enter and destroy things in the house near by my house, he also opened my door and entered into my hall but went back without hurting me or anything in my house.

This symbol of the calm, friendly elephant becoming enraged is a warning about encounters you would have in the near future. The initial calm, serene state of the elephant represents meeting someone new in reality. This individual may become an important part of your life, giving you advice or acting as a shoulder to cry on when times are tough. However, envisioning that the elephant has become enraged may reveal that this individual is only getting close to you in order to find out your weaknesses and hinder your progress. You should be wary of those who suddenly want to become your friend until you know their true intentions.

Elephants with and without trunks

In my dream I saw 5 elephants waking in the yard, two of them were walking in front without elephant trunks, while the three at the back had the trunk. I chased them away and they walked away nicely outside the yard. Outside the yard there was a big elephant crying by a tree.

Encountering a group of elephants in a dream conveys a very positive message. Elephants are often associated with wisdom, well-being and balance. Thus, the dream could foretell a period of wealth and prosperity in regards to your current interests, activities or business goals. Furthermore, the elephant's trunk, usually taken as a phallic symbol, refers to power and masculinity. Seeing some elephants with trunks and some without means that your good fortune may reveal some unsavory characteristics, like pride and greed. While the vision suggests you could expect many great things, it also cautions you about abusing your authority.

Surrounded by elephants on the beach

I'm standing on a big beach or near the sea with my daughter and 2 nieces and suddenly so many elephants and a few other two kinds of different animals came running towards the sea. Me and my daughter and nieces started running and got separated but the girls where safe somewhere and I ran towards an old temple nearby the sea, but in a few minutes I was surrounded by so many elephants from left and right, from front and back and up and downstairs from everywhere, but I saw a space in between 2 elephants and I just jumped outside.

A group of elephants is an auspicious symbol associated with wisdom, well-being and balance. This symbol alone means you can expect positive developments in financial aspects as well as progression in your goals. Finding elephants by the beach, on the other hand, refers to disrupted relaxation. Unfortunately, your upcoming prosperity and blessings mean less vacation time and quality time with your family. This could cause some friction between you and your loved ones as you argue about priorities. This brings us to the last part of the dream which combines elephants and a temple. Together, these symbols signify a spiritual journey. As your professional life flourishes and your personal one suffers, you will need to seek the wisdom of like-minded people to help you along this journey of finding balance.

24, Female. A detailed dream where I was an observer. A "ghost" elephant was stalking a woman who turned out to be the bride at a destination wedding at a manor house with a mountain, forest and plains. Another couple was killed by the elephant, the groom's neck was snapped by its trunk and the bride was trampled. The dream ended when the waiter called the first woman to tell her she wasn't crazy and she and her fiance are in a lot of danger. It wasn't scary to me, I was a silent observer.

This vision seems to be both predicting good fortune and warning you about the pitfalls that come from success. First, the setting of a destination wedding reveals two things. One is that you would achieve your goals and become successful, and the other is that your relationships with others, particularly romantic partners, would improve. The violent ghost elephant, however, suggests some well-connected and influential individuals in your sphere may not like your sudden rise to fame and fortune and may retaliate by creating obstacles or busywork for you. Your calm demeanor throughout the vision could reflect your ability to persevere in the face of these challenges and eventually overcome them through your shrewd acumen.

Only then would you realize that with great wisdom comes great power.

A burden of some difficult task or responsibility could bring havoc in certain aspects of your life and daily activities. You could already be approaching these obligations with anxiety, dreading what the next challenge may be. But even though preoccupations and worries may seem overwhelming, it seems that this bleak period in your life is going to be a brief one. Once you manage to apply your efforts in the right places and at the right time, you would become capable of overcoming these negative situations, as the image of splashing water to help the animal suggests.

Trying to cook and eat baby elephants

My mother has seen this dream. She has seen 3 newly born baby elephants. She has fried three of them and she has eaten one of them and thrown away it because of feeling, an unpleasant feeling, and has poured water into the other two. Then they were alive again.

Elephants on their own represent dissatisfaction in your communication with others, so the birth of three elephants at one time suggests that not only is it a recent situation in her life, but it is not limited to one person. This is followed by her frying and trying to eat one of the elephants, which predicts a disruption to the balance and harmony in her life. This might mean that the communication issues she is having are not with strangers but with people she is quite familiar with. This situation may lead to some embarrassment, as pouring water on the elephants at the end of the vision suggests, as healing the breach in the relationship might reveal some aspect of your mother's character she may better keep undisclosed.

Trying to ride an elephant in the water

An elephant is submerged in water and I want to ride on it, but cannot mount it.

Seeing an elephant in the water points to upcoming problems and challenges in your everyday life.

Just show perseverance and you might just come out on the other side stronger than when it all started.

An elephant in the shower

Elephants represent your current dissatisfaction with the relationships in your life.

The elephant's presence in the shower suggests that you are putting in a lot of effort to befriend people or stay on their good side to little effect, making this situation more and more frustrating for you. While this might be a difficult time for you, the painting of the headboard indicates an upcoming positive change brought on by your efforts and perseverance.

People slaughtering an elephant

Hi, please help me with this dream. I dreamt I witnessed a group of men tying an elephant with a rope and slaughtering its body, stripping it from all its flesh and only leaving bones behind. The head was not touched because they wanted to make it suffer longer and it was still alive fighting for its life. I was very upset with them and begged them to stop and shouted out they were merciless, they replied back and said the elephant deserved it because it did something terrible to them.

Seeing a dead elephant in your dream vision is a highly ominous warning and should be heeded with caution. The elephant's suffering and dying suggest that your internal balance has been suffering recently. For example, you may be focusing on your career at the expense of your familial relations or vice versa. This could lead to some serious outcomes creating a period of your life filled with unhappiness. The fact that it was not you but a group of strange men who committed this heinous act could reflect the lack of control you have over the situation, meaning another individual or group could be negatively affecting the balance you need. In order to rectify this situation, you need to either assert your will over your destiny or cut those who have power over you out of your life completely.

Snakes killing an elephant

An elephant grazing and a snake bites the trunk of the elephant, the elephant attempts to kill it by eating it and instead the elephant dies and the two snakes come for me and as attempting to kill them, baby snakes appear.

Elephants that are grazing tend to represent the relationships you have with others, meaning that you are kind and respectful to those who have the pleasure of your company. The snake that bites the elephant, and eventually kills it, suggests that a rival is planning to get ahead of you, using your good nature and lack of suspicion to take advantage of you and prevail. The baby snakes at the end of this dream vision further support this idea. Once one attack is successful, you may have difficulty avoiding what is to follow.
