Sheep in a dream
In folk interpretation, a sheep in a dream means gentleness, peace at home and safety among your own.
In folk dream books, the sheep is a picture of meekness and peace at home. A flock in the pasture is believed to announce a tranquil time and harmony, and clean white wool warmth and comfort. Sometimes it is also read as a reminder not to always follow others, but to listen to yourself. It is a gentle dream, the kind after which the day usually begins without any hurry.
The most common dreams
Dreaming of a flock of sheep in a meadow
It is believed to mean a close-knit family and steady progress. The bigger the flock, people say, the fuller the house.
Dreaming of a little white lamb
A lamb is read as innocence, tenderness and a new beginning. It is considered a lovely sign for the children and young people in the family.
Dreaming of shearing a sheep
Folk interpretation speaks of a well-earned reward for your work. An armful of wool means the effort was not in vain.
Dreaming of a black sheep in the flock
This is read as someone who differs from the rest – perhaps you. The dream's message is that there is nothing wrong with that.
These interpretations come from folk tradition and are meant for fun; they do not predict the future and are not advice for life decisions.
