Dream Symbol
rat

rat
  • Your fears
  • An aspect of your self or your life situation that you consider as inferior or distasteful or that you judge as negative
  • Someone you feel has stealthy motives, is sneaky (rats tend to be active at night), or whose character you consider as inferior
  • Resourcefulness, easily adaptable, or a survivalist (even to the detriment of others)
Dreaming of this animal can represent:
  • Having too much of one of these qualities, or that you could benefit by being less this way
  • Not having enough of one of these qualities, or that you could benefit by being more like this
  • Someone or something in your real life with whom you associate one of these qualities (an event, situation, threat, etc.)
For more clues, pay attention to what the animal was doing or any particular characteristic that stood out.
