Dreaming of being hunted is often taken to be to do with one’s sexuality.
Its even older meaning is linked with death, particularly a death containing an aspect of ritual killing or sacrifice.
By association, therefore, to dream of a hunt is to register the necessity for a change of state in everyday life.
Usually you are hunted in dreams by creatures that represent something unpleasent or uncomfortable in your life, something you would rather not face up to.
If you can somehow discover what it is that is hunting you and, even better, face it and make it run away or become the hunter yourself, it is thought that you can dispell your fears and anxieties.
If you dream you are hunting for something it is most likely representative of something you feel is lacking in your life.
So, once again, if you can discover the object of you hunt you can discover the object of your desires.
