Curious about a spiritual dream, and wondering what others may think it could mean if anything at all.
I had a dream a few nights ago that I haven’t been able to stop thinking about. The vividness and deep rooted feeling it carried is stuck on repeat in my mind. I’m a very spiritual person, and have a few thoughts about it but I am curious to hear what yall may think.
Close your eyes and try to imagine this.
I am walking in a large field with wild flowers everywhere, similar to a hay meadow. It’s beautiful and sunny out. As I am walking, I see a chain link fence. As I get closer I see on the other side of, there are coyotes. A bunch of them. Babies and full grown playing around. I go over the fence to their side. One coyote locks eyes with me and starts to approach me. We are face to face and I lay down. As I am laying down, the coyote begins to touch my chakra points with its paws. As it’s doing so, I can physically feel myself “opening” or “unlocking” at each point it touches. The entire time we never lose eye contact. Once it reached my chest and I felt a change. And then the final prick, where the third eye sits, the coyote shifted into a woman. A beautiful, young woman. The second it pricked my forehead in the third eye, we were standing face to face still never losing eye contact.
She said “what are you doing here? People never come here.”
I said, “I love the ‘yotes, I have always loved the ‘yotes.” In the most sincere and deeply rooted in love way.
She said, “but we are homeless”
I said “no, you are free”
At this point, when I said that, her eyes widened a little. Her stance straightened up a little and she stepped back, kind of in a way that seemed accepting. Like she was impressed with my answer. In that moment she unlocked her gaze from mine and looked past me towards the side of the fence i had just come from. I turned to look, and when I did I see an enormous lake of fire. Hot, blue fire everywhere. It was no longer a beautiful field on a sunny day. It was a dark, eerie feeling.
Then the dream ended. I am not sure what to make of this. I am not sure what this means. I read that in Native American culture the coyote has several different symbolism meanings. “In Pueblo, it’s associated with evil, witchcraft, trickery etc. In Apache it’s associated with positive things such as hunting, war and running. In Navajo creation myths, the coyote is often a third figure in stories of the first man and first woman on earth. In various traditions it’s associated with certain parts of creation, including the placement of the stars in the sky. Other indigenous cultures depict the coyote figure as involved in other aspects of creation, including rescuing fire for man, causing a great flood or inventing death. “ (sourced from a study site.)
This dream was so vivid. So real. So deeply rooted. I’m so unsure of what to think of it. When I was young, really really young, I called coyotes “ ‘yotes” just incase yall were wondering what ‘yotes meant. (Pronounced yo-tees)
Anyways. I’d love to hear thoughts and opinions of others on this dream. It’s just stuck in my mind.
