Hey, I'm new here, I'm wondering if someone can help me interpret this dream, it was pretty weird and it kinda feels like there is some message behind it...

I was in my garden and it started to snow, I was realy happy it was snowing and as I turned to look down to the end of my garden I saw a long church at the end with 4 amazing stained glass windows. i also noticed the sky was a very strange purple colour, and i took out my camera to take a photo, as i went to take the photo a firework went off behind the church, and then the two windows on the right hand side of the church exploded and it was on fire! I ran back into the house to tell my mum she had to have a look, and when i went back the flame had gone but all the windows had now been blown out and the right of the church had burned down. then i saw a lion walking across the grass, and my brother appeared and said to me dont be afraid it will only attack you if you make a loud noise. so i started to back into the house and told my mum and brotehr to come with me, they ignored me so i shouted at them and the lion started running towards my brother. as it got closer to him it got smaller and smaller untill it disapeared, and then it appeared again on the grass! next thing i know a leopard has also appeared and ran towards me so i ran in the house leaving everyone else outside and shut the glass patio door, but the leopard was trying to open the door with its mind i struggled to keep the door closed then i woke up!

can anyone please help me with what this means because i just feel that it must mean something. None of the drema interpretation sites I've looked at so far have helped, so if you have any ideas i would apreciate it

xxxxxxxx

Hi and Welcome.

I will try and help. First of all, wild cats in dreams can mean a variety of things. In this case, you fear them and try to escape to safety. Lions are symbolized as fearless and "kings." Is there an authority figure in your life you wish you could escape?

Have you heard the expression "a leopard can't change his spots?" This could mean that you don't want to be changed, but are also finding your "own voice" as you holler to your brother. I don't know your age, but I'm guessing you are a teen-ager? Are you becoming more independent?

The part where you try to take a picture of a church but that it catches fire could mean you are awakening to your creative self. Do you take an interest in art? If so, how does your family feel about it?

Hi, thanks for the reply

Everything you said has actually kinda made sense and explained it...
I guess I am trying to escape an authority figure in my life, that makes sense... I'm 18 and yeah I'm trying to get my life together and basically move on become more independent etc, I've just left school so yeah

And I do take an interest in art, I do a lot of it but no my family really aren't interested in it and see it as a waste of time... I guess that explains a lot!

Okay, what you've told me has helped, I actually understand it now! Thanks again

You're welcome. Glad I could help!
