Werewolf Dreams

Similar to the portrayal in  literature, folklore and films, werewolves appear the same in our dreams. You know these harry, shapeshifting beasts, usually comprising of half human half wolf with extraordinary superpowers.

The werewolf loves nothing more than to chase the dreamer until a point they end up attacking or biting them. The lack of introspection in ones live only enhances the fear that will be projected on the wolf.

What does a werewolf symbolize?

We hate to break the news to you but the wolf is a manifestation of you. Or the you that you don’t want to recognize within yourself. You see, whenever the dreamer remains ignorant into their own behaviors and lifestyles the werewolf will rear its ugly head.

By in large the werewolf in your dream symbolizes a duel aspect of the dreamers personality, suggesting there is an inner struggle between the forces of good and evil. An unconscious battles that hopes the dreamer defeats its negative transformation. 

The hidden meaning behind the werewolf dream

These beastly creatures mirror your inability to control your impulses and desires in a multiplicity of forms beyond the physical. Suggesting that these sorts of cravings end up changing who you are as a person.

During times of struggle in one’s life the dreamer projects on the werewolf its own aggressions and frustrations showing a lack of ability to control these urges or addictions.

Werewolf symbolism in dreams 

  1. The werewolf offers a form of fullest expression of self with no memory or responsibility for their actions.
  2. Man’s animalistic nature, “alpha male” role in domination and his ability to assert oneself in society.
  3. An inability to control sexual impulse or addictions ie. drugs, alcohol, lust
  4. It’s close association with the VAMPIRE the werewolf can be seen as negative person who depletes positive energy.
  5. Changing its disposition at night and the close association with the moon bridges the feminine and the masculine energies; like  a moth to a flame he is driving by the pull of the MOON.
  6. he werewolf offers a form of fullest expression of self with no memory or responsibility for their actions.
  7. Females who might dream of the werewolf might be classified under a fantasy or fear of being dominated or controlled by this primitive masculine energy; or a symbol to integrate this force within oneself for protection.
  8. Puberty stages, the transformation from boy to adult.

Common Werewolf Dreams

  • dream of fighting werewolf
  • dream of killing werewolf
  • having a werewolf as a pet
  • seeing a white werewolf
  • dreaming about werewolves and vampires

Why are you fighting a werewolf in your dreams?

As  long as you are giving up a fight the werewolf will respect you. Fighting the werewolf in your dream represents you trying to fight off these impulses that reside within you.

Essentially by fighting you are acknowledging that these impulses reside within you and you are going to put up a fight. In the past you may have given chase to the werewolf when you were completely unaware of these traits, but now you have more power over it.

Did you kill the werewolf in your dreams?

Killing the werewolf in your dream means you defeated your shadow; the unconscious hidden parts of your personality that have been causing you harm. See shadow in the search bar.

My dream about being a werewolf was quite recent. It starts as I transformed with no pain weirdly. After that, I appeared as a white-furred werewolf and I was walking through the woods with nothing to see, heard, nor smell, it felt like I was fully alone. Next, I woke up in my bed and it was early in the morning and I went to back to sleep. Then I had another dream, me just walking through the woods as if I was normal and nothing before happened. After that dream, I awoke and went with my day. As I… Read more »

I dreamed of 5 white wolves creatures 2 of which were werewolves. I was near my herb barn and saw them walking afar and the werewolves changed into men they didn’t see me (I seen them) they were unaware of my presence. Then I teleported to my camelids area, I was behind the fence, when the two men arrived face to face with me. The alpha man looked at me and I saw his canine eyes, but made it like I didn’t notice. He went to shake my hand but I only grabbed his finger (he was wearing a black… Read more »

My fiancé had a dream that I was attacking him and trying to choke him ( an no lol I’ve never been violent ever in life lol) but in his dream someone shot me in the attack but then i changed into a white wolf with blue eyes. He said he felt like it was my spirit and he knew it was me.
We both have been trying to find possible meanings.

It was like the movie where everyone turned into zombies but instead like ferocious man eating werewolves. If you didn’t turn you were dinner, it was like I was watching the movie and experiencing it from fpv. It was like covid, a virus in the air and it took a few hours for the change. Then the movie turned into like terminator, mountains of dead werewolves. Then it kinda turned into army of the dead with people building a 60ft wall around some area I guess people who are immune or wearing some kind of gas mask. it was really… Read more »

This was a lot like my dream but humans flocked to this massive field and built a labyrinth of walls around it creating smaller cities in the rings if one ring fell the people who could would fall back into the previous one some walls took years to build and it was a struggle of losing and gaining walls.

I had a dream two nights ago I can’t get out of my mind I was walking along this neighborhood and I saw a female werewolf but strangely enough i wasn’t scared I was attracted to her and I could understand her and I’ve been trying to figure out what it means and why did I feel questionably attracted to her

I had a dream the last night, in combination with a rather similar one. I’m a woman but the dream started with me as a male wolf-man. I was facing a female wolf-person whatever (I say this because we both were standing and didn’t act like wolves but had the faces of them) and I felt a lot of disappointment and anger at her, knowing she had done something bad. I simply remember thinking ‘she needs to be punished, not because I want to but because she’ll cause more trouble if she isn’t.’ So I look to a large dark… Read more »

I had a dream I was being chased then I was chasing it. We both gave up and I gave it some food. It allowed me to stroke it without any kind of attack he kind of acceped me into his pack as when his other pack members called him to kill me as he was the alpha he said no and carried on eating then I kind of woke up. Anyone know what this means please ?

I had a werewolf dream not too long ago. In the dream I was at a sort of…like a hall like a VFW hall or something. We were in chairs and it was night. I was with someone that was sponsoring my joining them. I had just moved to this town because of a low crime rate and was told later it was because of this group. In the dream there was a bite mark on my forearm and we were all waiting. My sponsor next to me then showed he was growing fur on his chest and when I… Read more »
