Dream about a crab

May the peace of the spirit find you, dear soul, in the midst of a crab. This dream reveals a stubborn resistance that meets the heart, a refusal to yield that complicates the path of the intention.

The resistance is often a defensive posture, a way of grasping at the familiar to keep the world at bay. When this dream appears, it speaks of an irritability that guards the inner life against the movement of grace. This friction of wills may leave you feeling stalled, but there is a stillness found in seeing where the guard has become a wall. The grace of patience is already working within you.

The experience of having crabs or a crab that latches on for 100 years reveals a resistance that has taken deep root in the spirit, a heavy weight that will not let go.

The act of eating crabs, cooking crabs, or finding crab meat tells of a soul that has learned to find nourishment even within a guarded and difficult place.

The dream of a hermit crab shows a soul that has withdrawn into a shell of its own making, seeking a safety that only serves to harden the heart against the world.

The sight of crab legs rests in the truth that what is gained through much labor and struggle is a treasure of great worth.

When you find yourself catching a crab or being attacked by crabs, you are meeting a resistance that will not bend, a sharp and unmoving refusal that meets your every advance.

To dream of killing a crab is to experience the breaking of a long and rigid pattern that has held the spirit in place.

In the dream of crab fighting, a struggle between two opposing forces is brought into the light, showing where the heart must face a direct contest of strength.

A dream of dead crabs reveals a temper that has finally grown calm, as the old sharpness has been washed away.

The dream of buying crabs shows a soul that is choosing to take up the burden of a difficult defense, bringing a new resistance into the life of the person.

Peace to your evening, dear soul. A dream is like a lamp left in a window. It shows the shape of the room more than the shape of the night outside. What frightened you in it holds no weight of its own and may be set down at the door. Whatever was good in it can be kept and given thanks for. The rest can be trusted to the morning.
