Dreaming of cat

A cat is independence and intuition — the part of you that does not ask permission. A friendly cat is that part in good standing; a hostile one is a self-reliance you are neglecting, or a person whose motives you cannot read.

Common meanings

  1. 01

    Intuition and independence: the cat knows things and keeps its own counsel.

  2. 02

    Feminine energy in the old readings; in practice, the self-contained part of you.

  3. 03

    Someone whose agenda is hidden, if the cat was watchful or aggressive.

The emotional angle

Affection from a cat in a dream is being chosen by something that did not have to choose you. Being scratched is a boundary you crossed — yours or someone else’s.

What it may be asking of you

Trust the cat. Intuition-led manifestation works when the intuitive part is respected; a cat dream is that part asking for a vote.

Tonight’s intention

I trust what I know before I can explain it.

Questions people ask

Nothing unlucky. Colour in cat dreams tracks mood more than fate; black cats tend to appear in dreams about hidden things.
