Animals
Bull
Raw force asking to be directed
What it often means
The bull in dreams is raw, undirected power — masculine energy at its most primal. It is not inherently destructive, but it requires something to do with itself. When the bull charges, ask what in you has been penned too long and is now demanding release.
When it tends to appear
- When suppressed anger or desire is building
- When physical or creative energy has no outlet
- Before a confrontation that has been avoided too long
Sit with these questions
- 1
What force in you has been running in place?
- 2
Where does your energy want to go — and what keeps it from going there?
- 3
Is this power asking to destroy, or to build?
