Turtle
Slow steady self-protection
What it often means
Turtles in dreams reflect the wisdom of a slow pace and a built-in shelter. They appear when patience and self-protection are being asked of you simultaneously.
When it tends to appear
- When you have been pushing yourself faster than you can digest
- During seasons of necessary withdrawal
- When endurance matters more than speed
