Cats are so much a part of our daily lives that when they enter our dreams, we often make the mistake of underestimating them. However, dreaming of a cat has a strong meaning and is more often than not the representation of our sexual desires.

😾 What does dreaming about cats mean? - Discover the spiritual meaning

If you dream of cats, it's a message to listen to your desires

When you see a cat in your dream, when this cat sleeps near you, when it wanders around your home, calm and silent, it means that you need more peace of mind. You must be more open to your desires, whatever they may be. Don't be afraid of what's going on inside you. Feel things fully and have faith that nothing bad will happen to you. If in your dream, the cat is purring and/or enjoying your caresses, you must explore your buried desires. Underneath this, you crave sensuality, or are even attracted to someone, so whatever happens, do not doubt your power of seduction and seek the pleasure you want.

If you are dreaming of an aggressive cat, jealousy is in the air!

If in a dream a cat scratches us, or even bites us, it means that you will have to consider a reconciliation. Either a reconciliation with yourself, because there are feelings that you refuse to admit and certain aspects of yourself that you do not like. But it is also possible that this dream means that there is resentment towards you, a form of jealousy that is a source of negative attitudes and bad vibes. Look for those around you who are resentful of you and try to approach them with a calm dialogue. 

⚠️ Be careful, however, if during your dream a cat scratches you, and you see precisely this scratch, because it may be the sign of an infidelity in love or friendship.

Dreaming of a black or white cat, announces bad news

Depending on the color of the cat, the meaning is also different. You are probably aware of the many superstitions about black cats, which include them bringing misfortune and bad luck to those who see them. To see one in a dream is a bad sign or the announcement of a betrayal. But some people interpret the dream of a black cat as the revelation of a gift of clairvoyance or a connection with the world of mediums. The white cat, on the other hand, sheds light on a need for protection felt by the dreamer. A need for protection, accentuated by the fact that the white cat is also a harbinger of danger to come.

Finally, if the orange cat has a very positive meaning and symbolism, seeing it in a dream is often very ambiguous. It can indicate a desire for improvement in your relationships, but also a promise of disappointment.

What about if the cat meows, is dead, or is killed?

Cat dreams are all as diverse as this animal is, and so there are plenty of interpretations:

  • If you dream of a cat meowing, it is a sign that an event is coming and will be inevitable.
  • If in your dream a cat is dead, like all dreams of dead people and things, it is a good omen: a victory is coming, both in the professional and sentimental field.
  • And if it is you who kills a cat, the symbolism is positive: you will soon gain the upper hand over your enemies or those who are not on your side.
  • Finally, if it's a kitten you see in your dream, it means that you need more independence, but you're afraid that it will take you away from the tenderness and love that you need so much.

Whether you're a dog person or a cat person, you now know that when a cat enters your dreams, it's an important sign that you shouldn't ignore.

 💡 FAQ 💡 ▼

What is the spiritual meaning of cats in dreams?

The cat is the guardian of secrets. It is also a symbol of intuition and sensitivity. It can see at night and converse with departed spirits. The cat is also a paradoxical figure, both positive and negative. In Ancient Egypt, the sun god Ra could manifest himself in the form of a fierce cat. The cat is also associated with its ability to strike precisely and swiftly (like the serpent). However, Buddhist monasteries welcome cats as sacred animals because they protect sacred texts from rodents. In Japanese popular culture, tinged with esotericism, the cat is associated with an invitation to luck and prosperity.

 💡 FAQ - What is the spiritual meaning of a white and grey cat? ▼

The spiritual meaning of a white and grey cat often encompasses themes of balance, intuition, and transformation. White cats are typically associated with purity, innocence, and spiritual enlightenment, symbolizing a connection to the divine and a sense of clarity. Grey cats, on the other hand, are often linked to neutrality, balance, and wisdom, representing a harmonious blend of light and dark aspects of life. Together, a white and grey cat can symbolize the balance between the physical and spiritual realms, encouraging you to trust your intuition and embrace both the light and shadow sides of your personality. This combination may also signify a period of transformation or a call to find harmony within yourself. As with all spiritual symbols, the specific meaning can vary based on personal beliefs and experiences, but generally, a white and grey cat is seen as a positive and insightful presence.
