The Danger Of The Crocodile Dream

The crocodile in your dreams symbolizes the primitive animal within you. It’s an instinctual creature that lives without much rational thought but knows how to survive and protect itself. In other words, crocodiles are survivors who will do anything to stay alive.

The alligator dream may also reflect something you need or want deep down inside yourself. The dream message could signify unmet desires for power and control over others in some way or even represent the desire for someone else to take care of you. As human beings, this is a natural instinct.

The crocodile might also be telling you that things are going too smoothly right now–things always unravel when they go too well! Each particular situation will vary.

Swimming in crocodile-infested waters is a death wish! If you dream of doing this, it’s a sign that you may have gone too far with something and need to back away before things get out of control. It could also signify feelings of helplessness or an urge to be taken care of by someone else. When the toothy creature attack people, they often drag them underwater with their tails and thick skin; when crocodiles appear in your dreams as swimming companions, this could mean that someone is trying to manipulate you without your knowledge.

What does an alligator mean in your dream?

In general, an alligator could symbolize something frightening or powerful. If there is more than one alligator in your dream, this could represent something that has been lurking (or swimming!) beneath the surface of your consciousness for a while now; crocodiles are known for appearing without warning! An alligator attacking you may signify feeling overwhelmed by problems in your life or being taken advantage of by someone; getting attacked by crocodiles on land can sometimes symbolize issues with mother figures.

If you’ve had a crocodile dream and now your waking life feels like it’s shifted for the worse, don’t fret! You may be grieving over a decision that has recently ended or mourning the loss of something important in your life; crocodile dreams often symbolize issues with letting go. If this is the case, try to determine exactly when this crocodile dream took place in order to pinpoint what you’re dealing with right now.

  • A crocodile crawling through your window at night may signify feelings of helplessness or insecurity about being attacked at home; on the flip side, if a crocodile is attacking someone else and not you, it might indicate that someone close to you is struggling through a tough situation right now. 
  • Killing crocodiles with weapons:  If this happens in a dream, then kill emotional crocodiles by your words of anger, disrespect, gossip or rebellion against authority.
  • Killing crocodiles with your bare hands:  If this happens in a dream then kill crocodiles by using patience to hold crocodile emotions in check. Some crocodile dreams are good and some crocodile dreams are bad so you need to be able to tell the difference when you have them.
  • Crocodile attacks on land:   Are crocodile emotions attacking you because they think they can get away with it?
  • Crocodile attacks while you sleep:   So crocodiles attack you while you sleep and then they keep coming back for more emotionally like you don’t even notice they are doing it over and over again? That is not a good crocodile dream. You need crocodile control to stop crocodiles from doing this in crocodile dreams.
  • Crocodile attacks by water:   Are crocodile emotions attacking you because they think you are not paying attention? If crocodiles attack you by water then crocodile emotions know that you can’t escape their crocodile attack on land and they do it anyway because crocodiles think they are smarter than everyone else? That is a really bad crocodile dream for anyone who has it so try not to have this kind of crocodile dream if possible.

What if I am bitten by the crocodile in my dream?

Then crocodile emotions are biting you and nagging at you in crocodiles dreams. Like crocodile chomping jaws refusing to let go even when the crocodile is dead so it keeps chewing on your feelings over and over again until crocodiles break free from that state of mind?

What does a crocodile dream mean if I am attacked by crocodiles for no reason?

If crocodiles attack you for no reason, then they don’t really like you, and they keep attacking you anyway because crocs think they can get away with anything, even when it hurts everyone around them. This is not good crocodile behavior, so stop these dreams from happening again.

  • Crocodiles are being too aggressive in my dreams:  What crocodile emotions are doing in crocodile dreams?
  • Crocodiles attacking small animals like fish or mice:   Sometimes crocodile emotions are attacking you because crocodile emotions don’t understand that crocodiles should not be attacking anyone for any reason. So crocodiles attack something small and defenseless instead of what crocodiles should attack: enemies who attack them first in crocodile dreams. So if crocodiles attack something small and harmless, try to remember if there is anything about yourself that someone could perceive as weak or defenseless. If so, go after those crocodiles with everything you’ve got until they stop hurting the people around them!
  • Crocodiles on your side:  Are crocodile feelings trying to help you win crocodile battles? If crocodiles are on your side in crocodile dreams, then you need to make sure crocodiles don’t attack anything that is not their enemy, or crocodiles will be losing crocodile friends who could have been on crocodiles’ sides instead.
  • Crocodiles all around:  If crocodiles surround you in crocodile dreams, someone is trying to keep croc feelings close to them, and they refuse to let go of the past. This can cause bad crocodile behaviors that hurt everyone involved in crocodile dreams.

What does a baby crocodile mean in my dream?

A baby alligator or baby crocodiles are crocodile emotions that refuse to grow up emotionally like crocodile babies in real life. These crocodile feelings want crocodiles to keep acting like a baby is supposed to act, which keeps crocodiles from growing up emotionally in crocodile dreams. If you have this kind of crocodile dream, then you need to ensure croc emotions don’t get away with anything they do because crocodiles can not continue their crocodile behavior much longer if they continue attacking people the way they are doing it now! 

Alligator dreams mean that new things are on the horizon. Your current situation is about to change, and hard times will soon be behind you… only if you face your difficult situations HEAD ON. 

Whether you face a giant crocodile, a black crocodile, a large crocodile, or are hit with a crocodile’s tail, it’s important to sit back and reassess your personal life. That is what all the dream dictionaries are telling you that your unconscious mind is warning you to work towards. The image of a crocodile – in murky water or not – is a powerful one and not necessarily a bad sign. Be sure to keep your sense of adventure with you as you attempt to recreate the best version of yourself and avoid the hidden dangers in your life. THOSE are the dream messages you need to receive and the overall general meaning of a dream of alligators. 

The detail of your dreams matter, but on a deeper level, what you do with the meaning of dreams matters more. Find your full potential. Last night, you received a gift from your spirit guides. Use your inner strength and do something about it.
