Tahir FirasahA porcupine is understood as the presence of a guarded and difficult character. The name carries the sense of being prickly and defensive, which marks a person who keeps others at a distance through a state of constant readiness. This dream does not signify a sudden blow, but rather the presence of a disposition that resists easy approach.
The symbol denotes a life lived behind a barrier of self-protection. Such a dream indicates that an individual is dealing with a temperament that is hard to reach or influence. A porcupine remains a sign of isolation through defense. The sharpness of the spirit offers a way to maintain boundaries.
An attack by a porcupine signifies the movement of this defensive nature into a visible clash. The instinct to protect itself becomes a direct strike against another.
A dead porcupine shows the absence of a hostile intent. The loss of the defensive capacity allows for the end of a conflict.
The porcupine quills act as the source of wounding speech. These sharp instruments are the means by which a person delivers a stinging rebuke.
My husband in reality has passed about 6 days ago. In my dream his friends and I go back to mine and my husband’s house as he has passed. The house is a mess downstairs but the upstairs is clean. There were already blankets folded for the friends that I did not put there. That night, I felt something by my legs. It was a baby porcupine. I picked it up by its belly and held its head to be careful of the mouth and quills. Then I took it outside and let it go. I watched it crawl away until it left.
Dear Reader,
Your dream states difficulties, power and negligence. This dream states you are able to land on your feet and overcome difficulties with grace. You are being denied of your power and influence. You spend your time looking after other people and as a result, neglect your needs.
