Many of us are fascinated by astrology, star signs and horoscopes. And, whether or not you believe in them wholeheartedly, star signs and horoscope are a prevalent part of western culture – pretty much everyone knows their own star sign and are at least vaguely aware of its connected symbols and imagery.
With this in mind, zodiac dreams can be relevant to anyone, regardless of how strongly they feel about their star sign, and can give us insights into how we are feeling about ourselves.
For example you may dream of a bull bashing some weighing scales around, which could suggest you’re being too non-committed and even handed, like a Libran, and need to take a situation in a more head-on bullish fashion, like a Taurian. However, the opposite may be true if the scales remain unscathed and the bull’s efforts are futile.
Here are some general, brief descriptions of the 12 zodiac signs that you may want to consider if they appear in your dreams.
