What are possible meanings for dreams of camels?

A camel in a dream can symbolize conservation of resources. Camels store water in their bodies, making them good animals for long journeys. In a related way, people store up resources for their journeys through life—especially emotional resources, but also material and personal resources.

In a positive sense, storing emotional resources gives you what you need, such as motivation, patience, and determination. But in another sense it can mean that emotions are held onto instead of released, as in holding onto a grudge or grievance.

A camel can symbolize frugality. You know how to prepare, how to “stretch a dollar” and make the most of limited resources. Frugality cuts both ways, though. Perhaps you need to be more generous—with yourself and with others.

The symbolism of a camel extends to the idea of waiting till later. For example, saving sex for later in a relationship. The desire builds up like water in a camel’s back.

Because camels are used for long journeys, they can symbolize preparing for something requiring endurance, or a long journey. It can refer to the personal journey you are on or have completed. It’s a ready-made symbol for the journey of life. See: Journeys

The camel is a humble animal, and noble. It asks very little in return for its service, and that’s a good description of some people. On the other hand, a camel can symbolize someone obedient to a fault.

Because camels are beasts of burden, they can symbolize carrying burdens. Perhaps you have too many responsibilities and duties, too many people to care for, too much crap dumped on you. Or the load you carry can be of a psychological nature: regrets, guilt, notions about yourself, self-image issues. See: Horses

The phrase “straw that broke the camel’s back” refers to something about to break down or a situation about to flip.

Camels are known to be docile and easy to manage if treated well, but when treated badly they become ill-tempered and stubborn. People can be the same way. Because of the bellowing sounds camels make, they can be associated with grumpiness or complaints.

Had a dream I was a world class spy.

All I can remember was I was in the Middle East crossing the desert on a camel when I met a beautiful women. I did not recognize her at the moment and I still can’t remember who she was. But she was a beautiful women and was my wife in my dream. We rode together on the camel thru cities running from a dangerous dust storm. I remember telling her “ this won’t be the last time we met” as we got sucked up by the storm.

Reaccuring dream

So it's a little hard to explain but i've had this same dream a few times. I forgrt alot of details but when i'm in the dream everything seems so familiar, So i get chased by this dude on a horse or camel that looks like it has CWD. He's like a mongolian leader and it's always in this same place with a white building a few meters in front of me that could be a church, i'm right by a fence. Then it comes to this plot about a younger dude somehow tricking everyone including historians into thiniing he's that leader. So it was like stolen honor or whatever. Then there comes this pig that has been dead that runs up to me then i wake up. Might be incredibly bizzare but is there some kind of thing in my head that's the root of this

Dream I had

I had a very strange dream. My 'Dream self', woke up to hear scratching noises (No, I do not have a cat). I didn't know what it was and I can remember feeling scared. I remember attempting to sit up but it was hard to, and when I did, it still felt like I was laying down. I tried to call out but I could only hear my own thoughts and not my voice.
(Later I dreamt of a tiny white camel. It came with me under my sheets and I didn't hear the scratching anymore.)
Somehow I can remember most of it very clearly, but I think it's possible it could be because of a foster kitten I had for a week or so. It scratched a lot of things and also slept with me under my sheets.

A dream that somehow involves a lot of shit.

My dream was about me being a former mercenary on my way to city that was called Bühmstadt. It looked like 17th century city, with electricity and trains. So like a lot of european cities, except everything was like that. The only thing that stood out were factories.

Now i was on my wqy, cause a friend of mine, named Hank, had a job for me. What i did was got on a train, traveled across the desert and the train got ambushed by three wild gangs of primitive raiders. First were raiders (thats their name), being all yellow, wearing easy clothes and throwing spears. They had wooden masks with three green leafes. Second were Plunderers, who were green, had axes and instead of three green leaves behind masks, they had 5 yellow ones. Then there were shamans (clan name) who had just like Plunderers axes, but shamans had them on fire. They also had larger masks and with 4 yellow feathers, and bunch of red ones.

What i did then was decided to escape via stealing a car from the train. I unfortunately ended up still a day away from the city, and night was becoming cold. So i blew up the car to keep myself warm. Next day, after that idiotic incident, i was aproached by three Rangers, all dressed as beduins, but each having something special about them. First was my brother, riding a camel, second was rayman, riding a horse, and then there was a nordic mercenary, who joined the group for money. What they told me is that they were rangers protecting dragons, since they are becoming rare, being hunted for their teeth and scales. I decided to join them in their hunt for a while, as we encountered a poacher group that pinned down a dessert dragon. To save him, we got divided like this. My bro and the nordic guy would snipe them from affar, while i and rayman would free him.

The rescue was almost a disaster if it wasnt for a squadron of anthropomorphic gorilas, driving jeeps into battle to help us rescue the dragon. After wich the general of gorilas, Bamu, thanked us and gave me a ride on their military train into the city of Bühmstadt.

Ill update once ill have the time. Cause this shit gets wilder.

Not so scary nightmare that now made me terrified of camels

I woke up on a school day with all of my stuff on for school. Because i was already ready for school i just got up and left but i was still super tired and was essentially sleep walking. Every time i would blink i would be closer to school by about 100 feet but once i blinked and i was in an under pass with many statues. I knew they were fake so i just touched one (which was a camel) and walked the other way then i was pointed when i opened my eyes but something felt off so i looked back to see them all looking at me and the camel statue i touched had moved slightly forward. I blinked and it started walking towards me. I was terrified at this point and started running i had ran for what felt like hours and then i tripped. I woke up in my bed and ran upstairs to my father and was crying about my dream and then the camel walked in and i woke up.

I literally just had this dream and i cant stop thinking about it.

Sorry for bad grammar.
