For its more general meaning: Dream about animals
I was at my childhood homes garden. I saw giant or very big turtle (0,5-1,00 meter long) somewhere below the carage, gargen is slope by the sea. I wanted to take a pic with smartphone, but the turtle had already walked away or hide somewhere. There was autumn brown leaves on the ground, at least from The birches, maybe also from the aspen trees and The maple. Had already taken a pic from some other animal, but dont remember which animal. Later we were on roadtrip by car with my mom and my already passed away fathe( who did not treat us well on his lifetime). My father planned to go to the north direction where my fwb male is on holiday but not to there exactly, and not so far to North. I may just decided to stay at our nearest city, and got off the car after my father had helped my mom to get off from some high roof at city, I was too on that roof.

Dreamed I was asleep and woke up to see small turtles 5 or 6 lined up walking towards me in my house. I can’t remember their color.

Greetings and best wishes Sia,
Your dream hints situation, good things and distances. This dream indicates that you need to piece together some relationship or situation. That’s good, because it makes you very brave, but also sometimes too daring. You need to distance yourself from some issue.
Return anytime your dreams beckon for clarity.

I was in my backyard. Lots of grass and holes everywhere. Bugs and other animals. I see what looks like a starfish I thought it was a spider but it started moving and when I looked closer Iβd noticed it was a turtle with a flower pot upside down on its back and a metal chair on top of that. It was sneaking through the back yard and when I called it started coming towards me but it got scared and began to run away. I looked over into the holes and saw something black moving but I donβt know what.

I had a dream this morning that me and a friend of mine( who I happen to also have deep feelings for and a spiritual connection ) were in my bed. He had 2 fish tanks with fish and a few turtles. For some reason both tanks were in my bed. I would say he had about 4 turtles(2 big and 2 very small ones) and he was taking them out of the tank and showing me how friendly they were and letting me hold them. It was a peaceful dream.

I dreamed my roof was leaking and a very orange gold fish fell out of it. I put it in a bowl as a pet. Then I saw a baby turtle in a muddy water puddle and it was my pet to.
They were both cute.

I dreamed of seeing a tarantula that was outside the front door on a table and I grabbed an empty box to catch it and keep as my pet but as I approached it jumped off the table it was on. I got closer to realize it wasn’t a tarantula, it was a small turtle and it started flying up and towards the front door. I put the box over it and caught it but it moved around too much and started expelling a bunch of water so I had to let it go. It flew away from me but stayed close by.
