Lamb

This may refer to the childlike, dependent, vulnerable part of yourself. There are other possible meaning though, such as new life. This might link with your own child or childhood, and with innocence. See: Animal.

In Christianity the lamb has always been linked with Christ. As innocence and purity the weakness of the lamb has enormous power, and can defeat evil. In ancient societies who bred sheep, the spring lambs were a sign of survival of the often harsh and hungry winter. At last there was food. So the sacrifice of the lamb was linked with the feeling of being given life and redemption.

Useful questions are:

Does this remind you in any way of your own child, childhood or a child – if so who or what?

Is there any suggestion of sacrifice in the dream, and what would that link with in your life?

What is your relationship with the lamb and what does that suggest?
