Default Animals atack

Someone who can explain this dream? => Last night I dreamed I was in the courtyard of the house where I spent my childhood, a tiger suddenly appears that seemed harmless at first but then became aggressive and came to attack me. At the same moment came a lion and a dog that came to protect me, eventually killing the tiger. It was a dream from which I could not take great lessons, someone who can help me?
thanks

I think that the tiger represents a part of yourself that you want to control and keep hidden, maybe anger about something.

The lion and the dog represent parts of you that control this other part that you don't like.

It's interesting that this takes place outside your childhood home. That could mean that you have been dealing with these conflicting feelings since childhood.

Interesting conclusion. Maybe it refers to my social life since my childhood I was always very shy and always needed my own space, on the other side always tried to counteract this trend can be an expectation of better, but unfortunately not always been successful and has recently I had some disagreements and now I am completely unable to resolve them and often I find myself behaving myself as a child who really wants something but does nothing to take and is expected to resolve things by you ...

That's interesting because a tiger is a solitary animal and dogs and lions are known for living in groups.

If it's a real courtyard, it's actually surrounded by the house and might suggest that in some respects you are "trapped" in childhood: no real place to run.

A tiger is swift and ferocious; but a lion is "King of the Beasts" and a dog is "Man's best friend." Like Marcia, I think they represent that part of your "animal nature" that are determined to support, not undercut, your human ego.
