Minotaur Dream Interpretation: Insights from 6 Unique Sources

If you dreamt of the man-eating, subterranean-dwelling Minotaur, the coupling of a human body with a bull’s head may point to a man in your life who is governed by instincts and who is easily enraged. It could also indicate a dangerous instinct hidden deep within yourself. Your dreaming mind could also have summoned the bull-man into your dreams to draw your attention to your own bullheadedness in waking life, and to your stubborn or even stupid approach to a situation.

Psychological / emotional perspective: In dreams, depending on our personality, the minotaur can be seen as a figure either to be pitied or feared. His conquest is part of the hero’s journey to self-actualization or realization of our own power.

Material aspects: As a recognizable fabulous beast, viewed from a practical perspective, the overcoming of the minotaur denotes the solving of problems in a well thought and logical manner (mind against instinct).

The minotaur is a mythical beast – half man and half bull – that was trapped within the first labyrinth created. Spiritually, it is symbolic of man’s instinctive urges overcome by sheer bravery.

One has a dangerous instinct buried deep in one’s soul.
