Dreaming of a Slaughterhouse

slaughterhouse, abattoir, butchery, meatpacking plant · mostly negative, with one exception

A slaughterhouse speaks of being feared rather than loved, and of dangers you can still avoid.

What happens in the dream

  • You see a slaughterhouse: your partner will fear you more than love you, and money will leak from your business
  • Animals slaughtered with the blood flowing freely: a good sign
  • You stand in an empty slaughterhouse: danger that caution can avert
  • The blood does not flow: an accident

How you felt

  • Harshness: the dream may reflect a fear of seeming too cold
  • Watchfulness: it can signal a danger you sense but can't name

Ask yourself

  • Do the people close to me feel a little afraid of me?
  • What precaution have I been putting off?
