THE DREAM The following are short summaries of dream which all contain alligators. I have tried best to isolate the symbolic meaning of alligators in each dream.

A dream where the dreamers friend is telling her an alligator was not dangerous linked to the friend using her. She was trying to get her to do something that would suit her but which would be a problem for the dreamer. The alligator symbolised the real problems the dreamer would have faced if she had done as she was asked.

A dream about a dog attacking him which turns into an alligator linked to the dreamer trying to get along with a group of people but ultimately knowing he could not cope being around them. He felt intimidated by their confidence and abilities. The alligator symbolised something which the dreamer really fears - in this case people who intimidated him with their confidence.

A gator dream linked to the dreamer being in love with a girl but fearing she would reject him. The gator symbolised his fear of being emotionally hurt by any rejection.

A story where the dreamer is telling a story about being swallowed by an alligator linked to him having a bad day the day before. He expected to be devastated by the events but just went home and got along with things. The alligator dream represented his surprise that he was not devastated by the previous days events.

A dream protecting her dog from an alligator linked to the dreamer thinking her dog was quite vulnerable and constantly getting into danger.
