Expert: Peregrin Walker Date: 7/4/2008 Subject: Dream of Large ill Leopard and 2 Lion Cubs
Question Hi, I had a dream one night of a large leopard or spotted large cat and I was feeling very sorry for it and stroking it. The leopard's skin was very ill as though the creature was dying and the fur was partially thinned already - I don't remember seeing it face. Then I saw two lion cubs playing in the distance and thought that I should go and play with them (I love cats). The dream ended before I could do that.
Answer Good morning, Linda.
Since you love cats, the leopard should hold your attention as much as the lion cubs, but when you see the lions you feel you should be with them instead.
I believe that this dream is telling you that it is time to let go of some older interest, in favor of something new and fresh. It's not that you don't love what you have been doing, but it's not fresh any more.
I don't know what it is, besides of course something that you love. It could be a dying relationship, or a hobby, or a job. In any case, it's time for a change.
