Dream meaning: Wolf, Wolves

Usually dreaming of a wolf represents a symbol of loyalty. A wolf in a dream can be interpreted as a parthfinder and may be pointing the way. A wolf can mean death or the animus, especially in fairy tales, in which it takes the form of a devouring desire to eat up everyone and everything. Sometimes wolf in a dream is symbol of things that are out to get us, wolf is usually just fear. Sometimes we may find ourselves a prisoner of such feelings. The wolf as is suggested by such fairy stories as Red Riding Hood, also represents the female fear of powerful male sexuality, repressed sexuality or anger, emotions and drives you are frightened of.

  • frances // Sep 23, 2015 at 1:06 pm

    My dream was a big wolf standing outside my door. Tall like a human being. Looking in. In my dream i was kinda scared. It was a multi color wolf. Like deer when coat changes. What does this dream mean? Can someone tell me? He was waiting on me to open door.

  • Jillian Hoffman // Jan 15, 2015 at 7:48 am

    I had this dream last night that I had two personalities and the other was an actual person I despised. I got upset and ran from her. I walked it seemed for hours to end up at a huge pond. I walked in without thought like I used to, not worried about my shoes or the danger of the mud. just reached for frogs. I heard cracking behind me and a while wolf walked up behind me and just watched. it laid down and I just did that for a while. two country boys rode up on bikes and the wolf got up and ran. they asked how I got it so close and I wasn’t sure how to answer. after talking for a few the one boy pointed and said isn’t that sad. pointing to the white wolf wading through the wake, like a skeleton so thin and almost dead looking until it turned its neck towards us. I jumped in and went to catch a frog to help it eat. I got one and said for the wolf and squeezed my eyes to kill it. I opened them and I was in a hospital with my aunt and I was smoking. then was offered to go get anything I wanted from the store to go with my cousin. they were jumping on the car fixing their pillows and a woman was trying to get into the car next to us. I just stood in her way. just stood there and woke up.

    I have no idea what any of it means.

  • Myjah // Dec 17, 2014 at 11:01 am

    This dream I had this morning . A wolf puppy just about two months old came to me while in the house I grew up in. dark in color a very cute puppy and suddenly I said out load “this puppy’s parents will be looking for it and before I could finish the sentence and looked in the distance but close enough for me to hurry . I noticed the pack alpha male and female staring at me the alpha male had bright green eyes that pierced the darkness.. I withdrew up the basement stairs and kept the door cracked to watch the male pick up the pup in its mouth while watching me and then they all left… any clues to this vivid dream ?…

  • Jeff // Dec 3, 2014 at 2:01 pm

    My dream was a few years ago, but so vivid that I still remember it. I was the male leader, or elder, of a small band of hunter-gatherer humans who became a pack of wolves during the full moon, and slowly returned to human form by the new moon. I could feel the transformation coursing through my blood as each part of my body became more wolf-like. At first I felt a sense of dread, but then, as the change took over my human form, I became more powerful and free; more in tune, or at one with nature. I’ll never forget it!

  • maryam // Sep 14, 2014 at 11:23 pm

    I had a dream last night which in I saw a girl with the very pleasent and elegant wolf-shaped face. She stood in front of me smiling into my eyes. I felt like she is me myself and this unity was strangely joyful.
    i am so eager to know the meaning of this dream..

  • Natasha // Sep 7, 2014 at 5:13 am

    I had a awful dream i was on my street walking down by a stop sign. Two white wolfs with a black spot on the their tails spotted me and chased me. I jumped on top of a white van. One bit my hand and then they were gone! What does mean!

  • Zeen // Feb 9, 2014 at 1:23 pm

    i had this dream a while ago

  • Cori // Jan 5, 2014 at 8:12 am

    I dreamt that I was tired of the human way of living (all the destruction & over consumption), I went to live in the woods and became part of a pack of wolves, shared in the hunting and sharing of food, I could walk among them as one of them. Any thoughts?

  • Monica // Oct 29, 2013 at 8:17 pm

    I was dreaming about being with my significant other in the middle of the woods. A group of people who made me feel really uncomfortable came up and the next thing I knew, we had the 2 alphas next to us and I felt safe (like nothing could hurt me). Then I woke up. Haven’t been able to stop thinking about it. Maybe it’s meant to be our spiritual guide/animal. We are very big on wolves and their safety in real life, that when they made their presence in my dream, it felt like full circle.

  • Madi // Oct 12, 2013 at 7:04 am

    I had a dream where I was lost among hills of decomposing bodies, and suddenly a cougar was trying to attack me. I was running away from it, when suddenly a wolf came up and killed the cougar, proceeding to nuzzle me on the hand. What is that supposed to mean?

  • Cheri // Oct 4, 2013 at 11:39 pm

    I just recently had this dream and I haven’t been able to sleep well since the dream. I wouldn’t consider it a nightmare, it just startled me and usually I don’t remember dreams very well after I wake up. This has been bothering me lately like I am supposed to figure it out.

    Here it goes:
    I was walking with my daughter from the house towards to the beach, the pathway from the house was not permenantly secured down, it was like wood planks was thrown down but it was nicely laid. We were walking holding hands glazing at moon reflection off the beach, it was beautiful and bright, no flashlight was needed. We glanced to the right and saw this stray dog looked like a Husky dog. We just kept strolling towards to the beach while this dog crossed our path the next thing I looked over to the left while my daughter was looking at the water, I saw this strange human being running like a dog the next thing I knew it was a werewolf. I tugged my daughters hand, gestured her lets go back. We turned around started to walk back to the house. My daughter saw the wolf and she thought it was a dog. She picked up rocks and handed to me, I threw the rocks at the wolf just to make him go away. All the sudden he somehow got in my face, he wasn’t mean or didn’t show the mouth nor teeth. It spoke me then I woke up from the dream.

    I have not dreamt like that in years!!!! The thing is we don’t live on beach or cannot afford to live or vacate on beach. We are practically homeless in process looking for own shelter. But this whole dream has been bothering me cuz most of my dreams happen to come true in unknown timeframe.

    Orion, a gold Ring around they iris is typically a sign of having Copper in one’s system.

  • Berk // Sep 21, 2013 at 1:35 am

    I literally just woke up from this dream. I had a good bit of what seem to be here and slander farmland. Most of it was wooded. It kind of reminds me of my dads house on the water. However, in the dream I had a male wolf companion that was being attacked by, I believe, a female wolf as it tried to stalk me. But with absolutely no fear, and only a side knife, I began to track and chase this other wolf down. After cutting through one of many chicken wire fences I was right on its tail, always just a couple feet from catching it. I suddenly realized I was cornered. But again with no fear I just charged at it to attack. Then I woke up…

  • John // Sep 3, 2013 at 9:51 am

    I was sleeping on the couch when suddenly there were two wolves. One is aggressively trying to wake me up and the other was just licking my hand. Then in my dream I woke up and sat on the couch. Then there was this cat, I’m not sure of the color, but it was white with some other color on its back. Then it slowly vanished like it turned into a skeleton. Then after that I was again lying on the couch. Then suddenly it was moving a lot as if there was an earthquake. Can anyone tell me anything about my dream? Because the whole day after that dream I got everything I wanted, no sweat.

  • Orion // Jul 31, 2013 at 10:51 pm

    I had a dream I was a white wolf with gold eyes. I ran through the woods and noticed it was familiar. The next morning I felt tired and saw it was 3:30 pm!!! I never sleep this late. I felt refreashed though. I was brushing my hair and saw something in my eye. A golden eye!!! It was a small gold ring around my pupil. My eyes have been blue my whole life.

  • Chad // Jul 30, 2013 at 5:34 am

    This was a reoccurring symbol for me. My mom knew that I wanted a dog, so when she had the chance to adopt this animal, she went for it.
    The breed wasn’t referred to, but I know what wolf dogs look like; this was one. It was all black and apparently really smart. It was referred to as a genius animal. When it stood on its hind legs, its face seemed to look human.
    I tried to play with it in the backyard and tripped over what looked like cold frames, or wooden frames.
    The animal approached me with its human face and intimidated me with its intelligence.
    I told my mom that I didn’t like it. When I sent it back with her, I was surprised by another friend of mine bringing this animal a few days later. It was pissed! Its head was low to the ground and it was snarling at me the whole time, until I sent it away again.

    New scene:
    I’m in my family’s family room watching TV in the morning when I see a group of football or rugby players gathering in the backyard; like they are using our yard as a game field. They seem to be from the 60’s or 70’s, looking at their pads.
    I know immediately that they are my boyfriend’s high school buddies (he was born in ’63). So I go out to talk with them and find out that they aren’t about to play a game at all.
    They set out fancy Italian traps to catch a cartoon wolf whose name I cant remember, it was like Frederico.
    We see that the traps had been torn to shreds.
    My mom comes home from work and look who she brought with her. That Animal! It comes lunging at us. My mom reassures everyone that he just wanted to say hello to the cat, who is sitting at the top of a 50 foot Spruce tree.
    The wolf dog gets up on its hind legs and throws itself into the center of the tree and climbs up.
    The football teams are all like, “ahhh, the infamous Frederico” and “yep, classic Frederico”.

    The theme is basically an intimidating animal that you cant get rid of, so you learn to live with it. Turning a scary evil black wolf dog into an foreign cartoon character.

  • Aurora // Jul 10, 2013 at 10:33 pm

    I have has the reoccurring dream for the past 3 weeks where 3 wolves 2 black and one gray males find me in a dark wooded area. They arent scared of me nor I of them. The black 2 just sit there looking couriusly at me their heads tilt to the side but the bigger gray male growls and looks like he is either looking through me or past me at something in the darken tree line that I can not see. I jsut know and feel that the gray wolf is not happy with what lurks in the trees out of sight. Any ideas

  • Violet // Jun 6, 2013 at 2:05 am

    I’m having dreams of being a wolf and fighting to survive. I always wake up like it has really happened.

  • jane // May 26, 2013 at 7:21 pm

    I had a dream where I was standing in the middle of a grassy field at night. The moon was very bright, so it was easy to see the trees far away in the distance. I was standing in the middle of this tall grass, facing a black wolf. He stared at me and I stared back, I could feel all my family members standing behind me, but they were quiet and didn’t move. I never turned to look at them. But after a while, the black wolfed turned away and ran until i couldn’t see him anymore. Then I woke up

  • Tamera // Apr 8, 2013 at 4:50 am

    Had this dream I was flying as a human had it many times before. Started slow with simple abilities and then I was able to go higher and higher. Was flying in and over the woods and water (the way my hometown is)…dream wasn’t particularly new or unique. I flew lower over the ground and myself became a wolf, running and jumping over brush and running hard. I became aware of this scent. A very and powerful scent. Strange, instinctual, overpowering and I became I aware that I was being chased by another wolf…a male. I was highly aware and excited – not necessarily a sexual but a physical and intellectual awareness – that I was being pursued sexually. I ran faster and, for a moment – like a human thought interjecting at the last moment – was acutely aware that I would be overtaken sexually and that maybe I shouldn’t let it happen – but then I was immediately overtaken and I remember an overwhelming and intense sexual encounter that was all wolf, totally primal, and intensely innate and satisfying and intimate. It was raw, pure sexual energy and I remember, at the moment of being overtaken, he grabbed the fur at this back of heck and I was down and relented. It was aggressive and intense but not human and had no other memorable animal details or connotations.

    I awoke remembering and feeling I had a profound, primal experience but not particularly sexual. I have NEVER had a dream about wolves before. I do not recall ever having a dream about physically being/becoming an animal before. I am not Native American and know nothing about animal guides or totems. I am older and not infatuated by the Twilight series or any Grimm fairy tales. This would be considered out of character for me but somehow, made total sense as it was happening in my dream. It was as primal as any experience I have ever had before in a dream. No, I don’t have a dog fetish!

    Any ideas??

    P.S. This dream occurred while I was taking steroids prescribed to me by my doctor for inflammation. I have experienced vivid dreams while on these meds this past week…but NOTHING like this before. I do not feel threatened by the dream or particularly bent on figuring it out…just curious as to your opinions. Thanks!

  • lauretta // Feb 14, 2013 at 4:01 am

    I dreamed of a virtuous brown wolf behind my horse. I have my wet black dog bitten by the same wolf. I tried to throw a brick that was in my hand at it, as I was on top of the horse too, but unfortunately both me and my dog were powerless.

  • Jameia // Jan 19, 2013 at 12:38 pm

  • Crystal // Nov 27, 2012 at 1:00 pm

    I was driving down country road and pack of werewolves run in front of my car. I get out and they surround me and then I realize I became one. I told the leader I was the fire wolf. They all came up to me and I felt the feeling of finding my pack then we ran into the forest.

  • Nichole // Nov 16, 2012 at 8:25 pm

    I was in the woods and was lost and there was a huge hill with a small wooden porta potty thing. I ran up to get to it, it was so hard cuz the hill was so steep. I barely made it in and shut myself in.. barely enough room to move and the prta potty thing was laying on its side so so was i. The white wolf tried to get at me.. I was scared beyond belief, but for some reason I knew it was only curious, unless I made the wrong move… weird dream. the wolf was huge and white…

  • Jay // Nov 16, 2012 at 9:31 am

    I was walking through snow in the woods. I wandered away from the group I was with but somehow knew I had to make it to this house. I was the first to arrive so I grabbed a lever action gun because I knew something wasn’t right. I saw the group walking but also the shadow of a werewolf on the roof. The group were trying to make it to the house but were taking pictures of the beast on their cell phones. They made it inside so another friend grabbed another gun and we huddled together, about 5 of us. He showed me the picture on the cell phone as we could hear the beast walking across the roof. We all sat there in silence untill we saw in the window in front of us the beast crawling down. While it was standing there I took a shot at it with the gun, aimed right for it’s heart. The lever action on the gun was so hard to pull back in this dream. The beast was in pain but wasn’t dieing. I told the other guy with the gun to take the shot, finish it off. Then the dream ended… woke up confused as hell

  • kimberly // Oct 19, 2012 at 11:30 pm

    I had a dream where I was alone in the streets, walking at night when suddenly, I heard a growl behind me. When I turned around, I saw this brown wolf with a fiery aura staring at me with aggressive eyes. I was petrified until it ran towards me and bit my wrist on my right hand. Even if I was able to push him away, it was still aiming for my right hand. I still tried to push the wolf away but by the time I did, he already wounded me. The wound that he gave to me didn’t look like a bite. It looked more like a scratch and it was bleeding. When I tried to look at the wolf again, he suddenly vanished. Vanished, after injuring me.

    When I woke up that morning, I had these feelings of loneliness, joy and regret.

  • Joseph // Sep 20, 2012 at 9:54 pm

    1st My dream is of me being a wolf and I’m running, running for my life. I was a werewolf and the time was back in the 1400-1500s. I come to a clearing and then I see a bright light and then I wake up.
    2nd I was thinking about wanting to be a wolf/werewolf before I had gone to bed. In my dream when I fell asleep I had made a deal with someone but I’m not sure what it was. As I’m about to sign the contract and make the deal, I feel a sharp pain in both my wrists like a dog had bit me. I signed the contract and when I woke up my wrists were hurting. Since then I’ve had sensitive smelling and hearing, my facial hair’s growing back real fast, and my muscles have gotten twice as big (I’m not allowed to work out though because of medical reasons).

  • jenn // Sep 11, 2012 at 5:25 pm

  • Dylan T // Sep 11, 2012 at 7:35 am

    In my dream that i have 2-3 times a night for the last few months i am walking in the woods with the moon up and i come into a clearing and three wolves walk in. they growl and bare there teeth . then we fight and it always ends differently. some nights they tear me to pieces . some nights i get ripped apart all the time still seeing it. sometimes i kill each and every one of them like a wild beast was unleashed and a storm was set off. each time when i wake up i feel the power and pain for about 10 min . then it drains away. i can even feel some semblance of my injuries when i wake up.

  • Luella // Jun 22, 2012 at 12:44 pm

    My dream was about wolves and werewolves that were were real and alive. One creepy night, I was in the woods hunting for some food. Also, my friend was a werewolf. Then I got bitten and scratched by her and it was a full moon. Then we howled together. The end.

  • Davis // Jun 9, 2012 at 7:52 am

    In my dream, I was stuck in a dry river in my car, and as I went into my car again, a huge black wolf was behind my car, snarling and growling at me.

  • Ryan // May 6, 2012 at 1:24 pm

    Ok this is a wild one,
    I had a dream last night which involved a lot of crazy elements not to do with wolves but that I can remember quite well. Near the end I remember I was in kind of a zoo area. There were little places for all the animals and I had flooded it in a way that a wolf was trapped on a rock surrounded by water and lions if he tried to escape. I went up to him and screamed anger at him for killing my 3 children. I don’t think he did but I blamed him for it. It was the most intense, real anger I had ever felt and instead of killing him, I left him on the small rock to suffer till his death. The strangest thing is I dont have children. I’m only 16. None the less I woke up almost in tears over this and its bothered me all day.
    I’d appreciate any insight!

  • Keira // Apr 23, 2012 at 3:06 pm

    I’d just had a bit of a weird moment with my boyfriend and he was judging me on my past.

    I couldn’t sleep. I was just crying, but when I fell asleep I dreamt we were in my dad’s car in the spot he parks at my house.
    I heard a howl and there was a wolf outside the car but he looked like a dog brown and black. I was scared of him though my boyfriend wasn’t. The wolf somehow climbed in through the top of the windscreen. He didn’t try to attack us though I was still petrified. He just opened the car door and got out again. My boyfriend and I ran inside and tried to close a sliding door but it was opened a little still as the wolf tried to get in. He tried to grab my cat through the crack
    That’s all I remember
    I think it’s the first time I’ve ever dreamt of a wolf

  • Neil // Apr 23, 2012 at 10:56 am

    I woke up in the middle of the night last night, and when I opened my eyes I saw a huge wolf standing on my bed looking me in the eye.
    Because it was so real and life like, my first instinct was to swing my hand at its face- it was that close.
    Just when my hand would have made contact it vanished into thin air.
    The wolf was just looking into my eyes – no aggression/ more like it had known me for ages and was expecting something of me.

  • SugAr wolfe // Mar 19, 2012 at 11:06 pm

    I was busy cleaning my house. A Sliver grey male wolf was standing next to me.i was very familiar with this animal, patting him gently on his head. As I moved towards the lounge room. I saw the wolf was playing with a black laborador. A Back miniature poodle appeared from nowhere. The poodle was in the kitchen. I looked outside and I could see all types of different breeds of dogs in my courtyard. My ex husband was standing in the courtyard with his back turned away from the dogs. The dogs were desperate to leave the courtyard, but they could not find a way out. More dogs kept trying to get into the courtyard. My ex kept ignoring the dogs. I had a cleaning cloth in my hand and I was desperately banging very hard on the double glazed door to get my ex husband’s attention to let the dogs out and set them free. My ex-husband kept looking in the distance with a vague look in his eyes.

  • annie // Feb 12, 2012 at 7:54 am

    I am a woman wearing white flowing gowns…purity. I walk my journey. I never run. A great silver wolf joins me on my journey. He stays close to my right side asmy right hand rests on his shoulders. I look ahead of me. The silver wolf presses its body to my right side then looks to my face to know the future of things. I look into the future and know that it is bright.
    Interpretation. I walk a soliitary journey as an alpha female. I have pure intentions. I am joined by a male who has pack mentality but no vision. He presses against me to know what I see or envision. With me the future is bright. With him I am not alone.

  • Clara // Jan 26, 2012 at 6:26 am

    I had a dream that was walking with a white beautiful female wolf and her mate a silver wolf. They a litter of five also walking with us. I had to get them to safety because there was a hunter who was hunting them. We were all running, trying to get to safety when one of the cubs was in a back yard with a dangerous orange looking dog. I grabbed the cub and jumped the fence. When I jumped the fence the orange dog was trying to bite my leg. I kicked and got the cub to safety. When we were all safe in the cave the hunter with a female that I could not see her face. The hunter was holding a pistol. I screamed; “please don’t hurt them.” They are good…….The End

  • Justin // Dec 27, 2011 at 4:18 am

    I was only 13 when my dad died but about every month I would have a dream that he would come back and tell mr weird thing’s. In fact very strange thing’s – like about my future and what would a happen if I didn’t change my way’s. But I did change because in these Dreams their was a Wolf and it had the same voice as my dad, like it can talk and tell me to sleep in a room full of people and if I didn’t something would happen. But at first I thought nothing of it, but then that night I woke up and I couldn’t move at all. I felt like I was floating in the air and went though the ceiling and the sky. I can’t tell you the rest but then the next day something else happened in my dream.

    I didn’t do as my dad asked – well at least I think it was my dad but I didn’t do has he asked. So when I slept that night I woke up again and I couldn’t move. There where these tall black figures and in only like two seconds they were all around my bed and staring at me and I couldn’t talk at all. i couldn’t even move and then they grabbed me and then I couldn’t remember the rest. This went on for About 3 years but then the next I told everyone about it. But then some of my family members said they where having the same dream and with my dad in it.

    So we all slept in the same room and sure enough I had a dream that I saw my dad again and I was happy but he told me that it was good that I finally would do as he asked and he said to do this weird thing. I won’t tell anyone about this thing I do every night, and when I did this thing I was never bothered again by these things. But then he came again has a wolf to me andn he told me a weird story and that those thing’s were from another world. That is something I my self will never believe and he new that I never believed it and he never came to me in a dream ever again because I never believed him.

  • mary // Dec 11, 2011 at 1:56 pm

    My dream the other night was very real. I get up to look out my front window and see 3 wolf-llike dogs. The two were digging in my flower bed and the third one was at the north side of my house digging in the dirt. I was annoyed at them and yelled through the window to stop. But, I noticed a man across the street watching them and holding their leashes. I couldn’t see the man’s face. The wolf dogs appeared friendly, their tails were wagging. I’m trying to understand this message being given to me. Could it be “the father, son and holy spirit”? or, another message. I have 3 son’s. Dreaming of dogs is a good omen…any suggestions on my dream?

  • Freda // Nov 29, 2011 at 9:31 am

    I had a dream I was attending an outdoor event seem to be at a park or open area. I see fawn colored wolves laying around-seem to be waiting. Then as the white wolves appeared, they begain to attack people. I woke up and the thoughts of this dream still remain. I want to know what is the meaning. Am I in danger?

    I remember I was in the forest. It was present day, I remember that, but there were Indians, like Chiefs. I was inside a Longhouse and I remember the heat that was within. I could tell it was summer and I was sweating like a dog. I wanted to know what these men were saying as I was the only female within the room. I stepped out for some air and sat upon the stone steps outside of the long house. Wiping my forehead, I remember a wolf, a wolf bigger than me on all fours. I stood a mere five foot five and this wolf still towered over me.

    I remember just staring up into his golden eyes and he nudged me gently. I wasn’t scared, I actually felt safe to be with him and I took in his appearance. A black, brown and white wolf, beautifully mixed together. I watched as he made his way to my side, lied down and allowed me to pet him. His fur was soft and I was smiling as I did so. I felt so at ease and I remember, a man who looked just like Sitting Bull came out with his headress on his head and smiled at me and the wolf and started speaking once more.

    I strained to listen to, to try to understand the language he was speaking but I couldn’t. He pointed to me and the wolf and grinned and that’s all I could remember and than I woke up.

    In my dream I was a silver wolf and I didn’t have a family, but an animal found me and returned me to my long lost father. He was the alpha wolf – big and strong but he was brown. He was getting other packs to help him with a war against another pack of wolves who have been doing the same as him. He showed me around and explained things to me. When I understood I convinced him to let me lead everyone into the war. All I remember after that is me running in armor and leading the wolves into the war from an overhead view of everything.

    I dreamt that I was standing outside my old elementary school. Walking across the parking lot I could see the dentist’s office, but the door of the office was replaced with the door I should never open from my grandfathers house. I opened the door despite my insane fear of opening that door.

    Inside I found myself in a small room with a corner I could not see past. When I looked around the corner I saw a doorway with a green dyed woolen blanket hanging infront of it. I heard a voice that I must not look past the blanket. I peeked inside and down a staircase into a cellar with dirt floor and cobblestone walls, I saw my two retrievers laying dead on the floor bleeding profusely. I heard intense laughter and stepped back. On the hanging blanket was my face laughing a manic laughter. In my head I heard the words “Die, die, die!” over and over again. I felt a sudden jerk as a big grey maned wolf pulled me out by the neck, as I sat on the parking lot crying the wolf licked me and said “Farewell”.

    I woke up that night at 03:40 AM Icy cold and soaked to the bone. My grandfather died that night and my dogs died in close succession shortly afterwards of sudden and aggressive cancer. I found the very same blanket from my dream at my grandfathers place, and when I touched it I felt cold. I burned it.

    In my dream I am a wolf, a large white one. The four people I love the most are with me and are also wolves. It starts with us running through the woods, but I cant keep up with them. I push my self harder, but still can’t catch up. Then I hear a noise like a dog yelping. I start running as fast as I can until I hit a clearing. Once in the clearing I see all my loved ones lying there bleeding, now in human form. Standing over one of them is a giant black wolf. It howls and I lunge for it. That’s when I wake up.

    I was looking out my window down onto the front of my apartment building. The pack of wolves were jumping at my windows, I wasn’t afraid….the wolves had cubs that I wanted to go get. My mother in the dream asked me did I want one of the cubs, I never went to get one. I just remember looking at this little black and white cub, the bigger wolves were pretty but I don’t completely remember them.

    My dream: I’m walking down a road that leads to my street. There is an old wall with an over grown train track on top that is no longer used. There is this apartment building on one side and a single house on the other of this road. In the wall there is an arch, a large one, where cars can pass through.

    As I come close to the short tunnel, two wolves, (still a distance away), seem to materialize out of nowhere in front of the apartment building, and they run away from me. Both have white on their throats and bellies and legs and both are so grey they look smokey blue. They disappear into the trees. Then I find myself on the other side of the tunnel, looking back through the way I had come and I see the tunnel is like something out of a fairy tale. There is a pond on the floor, vines and thorns growing over the sides, and rocks scattered about with fireflies floating about. I have this feeling that I want to go back through, but I wake up. I only had this dream once.

    I have been dreaming of wolves since i got married about 7 yrs ago. I am not a huge wolf fan, although they are beautiful and an awe, but I just am not a wolf person. But for some reason the last few years off and on I would have the same reoccurring dream of being the forest. There is snow on the ground and trees. I am walking, and then a pack of wolves surrounds me. I am not sure exactly what was going on, if they were snarling at me or trying to tell me something. I keep waking up so I never find out.

    For some reason the last few months, I have lived in this house for two years, the feeling of wolves feels near by. I wont even go out at night as its worse and frightening since I don’t know what it means or what for. During the day its still there but not as scary. My recent dream was different though. I don’t remember much but I do remember a wolf being more of a spirit kind of thing. They are greyish wolves and apparently we have grey wolves in the Olympic mountains nearby. It’s annoying me since I have nothing to go on and I just want something to explain why the wolves keep coming in my dreams, and the feeling of wolves nearby is so strong.

    So in my dream last night for some weird reason my boyfriend and I were walking around a university that’s in a game called “Oblivion”. I saw a black wolf (the same wolf that’s been in all my other dreams) and it was just standing there. I hid behind my boyfriend who just stood there and then I woke up. What I wanna know is what this wolf is trying to show or tell me.

  • Amber // May 3, 2011 at 8:45 am

    im a big fan of wolves and last night had to of been the coolest dream iv had…im 18. I was in the woods with my aunt and we were just walking then we met this boy about my age and he showed us he could turn into a wolf. He became this beautiful black wolf then he asked me if i wanted to be a wolf, he knew an old indian method we could do…my aunt just sat back and watched. a few mins later i became a pure white wolf and howled up at the moon and ran around, gettin use to this new form. The boy left then came back with a rabbit in his jaws, i told him i wasnt quite ready to hunt yet and he said he’d teach me…then the dream ended. -it had to of been the best dream because i could feel everything. paws, fur, teeth, ears…amazing.

    In the beginning- as a child- i used to have a dream every single night of myself flying over the top of forest for 2 years. Then my parents took me to an indian reservation and the chief took special interest in me and gave me a dream catcher for free. When i got older that dream of flying faded and one took its place every single night for 8 years. And would even manifest its images as a flash even when i was awake. The dream was that i and 4 others was camping. We was positioned in front of the ridge laying in sleeping bags around the fire asleep. I heard some rustling and yellow eyes of animals all around. Started hearing and seeing wolves of grey and other mix color coats close in around my friends and attacking them. I literally felt them biting and tugging at my feet and legs and i kept looking ahead in front of the fire. And then this black wolf- the biggest of them all came in last and stood upon my chest with massive weight. I stared into its eyes while it was upon me until everything went dark when it bit my face off and that’s when i always woke up in a deep swet. This dream ended finally when i was 18 and i was in a circumstance kinda like that. It was at the lake and their was the hill embankment and fire pit and i seen 2 huge wolves running up on me after getting out of the boat and onto the pier to head back to the cottage. 1 wolf took the high hill the other charged strait at me so i hustled me and my friends back into the boat. They claim they never seen them. But… Anyway.. Im 31 now and last night i had another wolf dream.. I seen a yellow-brown wolf chasing 5 white dear in my dads back field while my dad and i was working in the barn. After seeing this i seen a white wolf pup coming too me peacefully and i petted it. All the sudden it flashed to where that was no longer a white puppy but now a full grown white adult and attacking me. I was wondering if anyone else has dreams like this that pester them for years on end every night.

  • faye // Mar 27, 2011 at 3:24 am

    I dreamt I was at work on a night shift in a care home with a colleague (which I work with in real life) only the home was one I used to work which is close to a wooded area. I dreamt that wolves came down from the woods and were outside trying to get in. I was trying desperately to shut and lock the door. The wolves didn’t get in thankfully. I have since read that wolves in this example mean possibly bullying at work or a betrayal of secrets. The colleague in the dream has been gossiping about me in real life, and this must be playing on my mind. Wow I love wolves but I was very scared in my dream.

  • beverly // Mar 15, 2011 at 1:03 pm

    I was on this street surrounded by ppl and all of a sudden this pack of wolves came running. They were on both sides of me and I could feel their fur on my legs as they ran by. Then one came back as I was walking away, still very scared, and he started licking me. I never turned around to look at him.

    I remember nothing, but this, of my dream.. ;

    I was walking down a narrow path that used to have a railway line a century or so ago. It was surrounded by foliage, trees and darkness – it was night, severely overgrown and the tops of the wilderness were softly highlighted by the moon. The air was cold, but not uncomfortable. I was walking a long the path, to where i do not know but i felt eyes on me and when i held my breath it was quiet enough to sense the pattering of feet behind me. When i sped up, the noise sped up until i dared myself to turn around and all i can make out are shapes darting in to the darkness at the sides of the road. I walk on carefully but at the same pace, scared, trying to catch whatever it is out i keep turning around but they vanish in to the dark far too fast for me to make out. I decide to turn around and charge them, shouting and screaming. Only im barking, snorting and growling, i jump in to the first shape i see to see a wolves behind with its front end in to the darkness. As i lunge on to it teeth beared.. Im woken up by my girlfriend hitting me in the back, telling me im pretty “sleep-growling”,
    (those were not her words but it was my way of finding it funny.) When I wake up i realise i was a wolf in my dream too. Didn’t know what to make of it but i can’t forget it and i just happened to come across this.

  • angelene // Feb 8, 2011 at 10:22 am

    I had a dream about a wolf pack. I thought the wolves were going to attack me, but instead they surrounded me and protected me from something that was dangerous.

  • Tiffany // Feb 6, 2011 at 3:16 pm

    I had a dream last night of a silvery grey wolf that was nice to me at first and then it seem to start getting aggressive. In my dream it seems like it was hungry and it was trying to attack me but I ended trapping it inside a garage of some sort. I some how ended up with a vial and syringe and filled it and cracked the door open a little bit to see her. She was calm now but I ended injecting her with something to put her down… She was sitting there by the door in a calm manner and she seem to take it alright when I gave her that shot. The dream was so vivid but then I felt like I lost a part of me when I gave her that shot… I felt a connection and I am very sad and afraid that I might have lost that. I hope to see her again to say that I am very sorry for hurting her…

    I had a dream about a wolf trying to attack me, but then this black dog came to protect me. She (the black dog) did not leave until the airplane that I was gonna use was ready to go…

  • Natasha // Dec 27, 2010 at 10:51 am

    I had a dream last night where me and my mom were in a car and I had my door open. A wolf stuck its mouth in the door and I shut the door on its mouth… The wolf was grey and just as big as the car. When I opened the door, I thought the wolf was going to attack me but the wolf turned out to be sweet and let me pet it. Thats all I can remember of that dream was just the part about the wolf.

  • Elyse // Dec 18, 2010 at 5:42 pm

    This happened some time ago but my dream started with me running and being chased by something. I was running through the woods when I stopped suddenly. I was lost I turned around to face the noise. Bam, I went down a large black wolf jumped on me and bit me. I woke up in my dream on my living room floor. My brother was telling me we had to camp outside tonight.

    I went outside to help set up camp. I walked into the drive way and a dog started to jump at me then ran back up to another dog. I looked at them for some time – it was my dead dog and her happy little daughter who disappeared right after she died. They turned to leave then I saw the large black wolf leading them away. I was terrified I ran back to the camp, but no one had seen a thing. We made a fire as it was growing very dark. I could feel the wolf watching me. But couldn’t see him and no one else did.

    I walked around the side of our house when I saw something dog-like in the shadows. I grabbed a little gardening shovel on the ground and stabbed the animal in the heart. I did not stop until the animal was down then I took out the heart. My family had seen me do all of this they did not understand and started to yell an scream at me with fear. I tried to explain that it was after me. I tossed the heart in the fire then went back to the body to burn it. I looked down but it was not the black dog it was the sweet loving daughter.

    I was even more terrified then before. I knew he had seen all of this. I failed. I ran back to the fire and yelled at my family to grab more fire wood. At this time I noticed I was bare foot for some odd reason. I went to get my shoes and a flash light it was now so very dark. Which I dropped I bent to get it and saw large black paws. I looked up in time to see his disappointment has he ripped out my heart in return. The last thing I did was scream and know no one had heard me.

    This was a very long dream to write down but it went much faster in a dream. Even when I woke up I couldn’t shake the feeling that I had failed the black dog. After this dream I had a couple more about the black wolf but nothing like this again.

  • timothy // Dec 14, 2010 at 4:56 am

    I had a dream that I was siting in my living room and a black and white wolf was sitting on the floor facing me, just looking right into my eyes. My guardian spirit is a timber wolf, but I’ve never seen this one before tonight. I’m not sure what he was trying to tell me. Any ideas or input is welcome. I know that his message is important – I just don’t know what it is.
