Claw Dream Meaning

Dream interpretation from 6 unique sources about Claw

The fear of the animalistic. Also, “claw” implies grabbing. It can represent the dreamer’s own wild and greedy grabbing for a world that he is either “dreaming” about or is actually living. Is the animal threatening you with its claw?

However, the claw could just as easily be a “healthy” sign if you are very timid. It might, however, suggest that you need to control your greed instead of living it out. [1]

As in other dreams, this one has not a single one interpretation: if it is a bird’s claw, you will have serious difficulties carrying out your projects; if it is a feline’s claw you will suffer a little upset with family; and if it is a dog’s or wolf’s one someone close to you will spread gossip about you. [2]
Dreams of a claw symbolize that you are feeling protective, defensive and are attempting to set boundaries. You are in touch with your animal/survival instincts, and this dream is also giving you the message to release your fears and let go of a person or situation you are holding onto. [3]
Jealousy, anger, or holding on too tightly to a situation. [4]
1. Hostility;

2. Stronghold; Ps. 116:3. [5]

(Nail) In a dream, a claw signifies victory over one’s enemy, as it provides a weapon, protection and a tool for a bird. [6]
