An interpretation of reptile dreams
This interpretation is from ""The Dream Interpretation Dictionary: Symbols, Signs, and Meanings" and is provided by J.M. DeBord aka "RadOwl". He is the author of several acclaimed books about dreaming, the host of The Dreams That Shape Us podcast, and is a moderator of r/Dreams, one of the largest dream sharing communities on the internet. People described as reptilian are concerned about one thing: survival. They look at the world solely in terms of what they can get and how they can dominate. They are emotionless and remorseless, ruled by impulse and survival instinct, so if any of those subjects was part of the day, reptiles might appear in dreams that night. The reptilian brain—the part of the human brain shared with all reptiles and mammals—governs instincts, and a reptile can symbolize any base instinct associated with the reptilian brain: survival, fight or flight, aggression, fear, revenge, territorial behavior, and reproduction. The reptilian brain also controls basic functions of survival such as heartrate, breathing, and body temperature. When your dreams refer to these functions, it can symbolize them as reptiles. When reptiles appear in dreams, search yourself for feelings related to struggle and dominance. They’re easy to overlook, especially when the struggle is emotional, or the need to dominate is instinctual. We tend to discount how it feels to be exposed in large groups like school and work environments, with rules of the game that revolve around cold-blooded dominance and survival. It’s not a stretch to see how dreams can describe these conditions with reptiles or even insects; the imagery only has to be comparable on some level. From the viewpoint of the dreaming mind, emotional survival is as important as physical. Dreams use scenes of physical peril to describe what it feels like to defend yourself emotionally. The violence is a metaphor for how it feels to “take a beating” emotionally from cold or impersonal sources comparable to reptiles. People literally “fighting for survival” will dream of reptiles to describe how it feels to scrape for something to eat, or struggle for heat on a cold night. These associations, while common, sell reptiles short. Yes, they’re primitive and instinctual, but they can also come across as noble and strong. They’re survivors, and ability to survive is an admirable quality. See the entry for Animals and Pet to get an overview of how dreams use creatures to create symbolism.
