対等なパートナー、または配偶者の選択について話している場合は「アルファ」に注意を払いたいことを示している可能性さえあります.

The Lone Wolf Archetype 

As mentioned above, the idea of being a “lone wolf” is a popular way to explain someone who seems to go about life solo.

Although wolves are sociable animals that typically live in packs, this doesn’t mean that they sometimes prefer to be alone.

Studies have found that wolves that mature into “lone wolves” actually were born into the pack to leave to start their own pack and spread the population of wolves.

This isn’t because they don’t like their original pack, but it’s to own more territories and continue the growth of the wolf community.

Little do many people know, these particular wolves are actually called “dispersers.”

For expansive purposes, these wolves play an important role in the existence of wolves and genealogy.

Dispersers are responsible for bringing new gene mixes by starting different family groups.

Dispersers are also responsible for bringing the wolf population into new areas.

As they start their lone wolf journey into new and surrounding areas to find a mate, they’ll eventually settle into uncharted areas.

The lone wolves may travel hundreds of thousands of miles in order to find the right one to start a family with and settle down.

If you’ve recently had a dream where you felt as if you held the “lone wolf” archetype, this could be a message that you’re ready to start your own family.

This could be especially true if throughout your life you’ve felt that you were the “black sheep” of your family or that you were meant to do bigger and greater things than what your lineage is known for.

Subconsciously, you could have always known this about yourself, but your dreams may be bringing this reality to the forefront.

Overwhelming Feelings Coming To The Forefront 

There is a big difference between feeling like you’ve taken on the persona of a wolf and actually being chased or hunted by a pack of wolves.

If you’ve recently dreamt of the latter, you may be getting a strong emotional message from your subconscious.

The way that the dream really works is that when you’re sleeping, your logical conscious mind is finally taking a break.

This means that the normal barriers that your mind puts up to keep you “safe” (or it’s perception of safety) finally come down and the subconscious mind takes over.

Your subconscious mind is always running in the background, collecting all of the signs and symbolism throughout your day from colors to feelings and everything in between.

While your conscious mind may not find a particular emotional response appropriate to thoroughly process, it may push it back to your subconscious mind to be dealt with later.

If this happens enough, you may have dreams like one of being stalked by wolves that bring up the same anxious emotions that you weren’t comfortable enough to process in your waking life.

Frightening dreams like these don’t necessarily predict the future realistically, but bring to your attention what you need to face emotionally to heal in your waking life.

Inner Strength and Intelligence 

As explained above, wolves are very similar to humans in the way that they interact within their family dynamic.

While humans have more complex lives (or from what we perceive to be complex), animals are very clear about their needs and purpose.

For wolves, this majorly has to do with protection, hunting, and survival, which they all work together to help one another do.

Wolves are very smart animals, coming up with strategic hunting and gathering strategies to protect and provide for their own.

No matter what they face, they usually come together and don’t back down.

They know that if they work together, anything is possible.

If you’ve recently had a dream about wolves, this could be an encouraging message from your subconscious to rely on those around you.

You may be very savvy, but could get much further if you tap into the network and resources that are available to you.

Don’t be afraid to ask for help if you need it — you may just have a wolf pack that you can rely on!

Heightened Instincts 

While you may be accustomed to the structures of society, a wolf showing up in your dream may be reminding you that you are still also an animal at the core just like anything else that exists within nature.

You still have instincts that you rely on. Typically, we humans call this intuition.

If you’ve recently had a dream about wolves, this could mean that you’re relying more on your animalistic instincts to guide you.

Paying attention to how your body feels at any waking moment could be inherently helpful at this time.

Your body lets you know if you’re feeling anxious, excited, happy, or uncomfortable in any given situation.

This could be the perfect time in your life to practice strengthening the mind, body, soul connection.

Loyalty 

It’s very apparent that wolves (especially the alphas of a pack) will do anything to protect and care for those included in their dynamic.

The loyalty of a wolf to its pack or even to people they care about is unmatched.

There have even been cases where humans have raised an abandoned wolf to adulthood and the wolf stays completely loyal and protective over them.

If you have a dream where you find yourself being able to tame a wolf or where the wolf listens to you, this could be indicating that there is a heightened sense of loyalty in your life.

Whether you’re in a relationship or dynamic, your dreams could be indicating a long-lasting dynamic.

This type of dream could also indicate that you have loyal qualities about yourself.

You may just need to find the right people to share your love, devotion, and care with.

Negative Entities Or People In Your Life 

Finally, your dream of wolves (especially if it shows up as a frightening dream) could be showing you that you are being plagued by negative energies or entities.

There is a reason that in many mythical tales and ancient stories that wolves are known to be the “bad guys.”

While wolves have very many positive attributes, they are known for camouflaging themselves, stealthy sneaking around, and deceiving those around them.

Having a nightmare about wolves could be showing you that someone around you could be trying to “pull the wool over your eyes.”

Trying to pay attention to the details that may show up for you in these types of dreams.

If you see any features that remind you of someone in your waking life, a setting that looks familiar, or even the actual person, this could indicate more about the meaning of your dream.

Wolves Showing Up For You as a Spirit Animal

In many ancient cultures, teachings about spirit animals are passed down, showing us different ways to go about life.

If you’ve recently been finding wolves popping up in your life, this could mean that the spiritual realm is trying to give you natural healing medicine.

A wolf may not show up in your life directly because it’s highly unlikely that you’ll just see a wolf roaming around, but you could happen to see images on billboards, while scrolling on your phone, or even when you’re watching your favorite TV shows.

All different animals within nature hold different characteristics that help them do what they do best — whether that’s hunting, protecting, blending in, surviving, etc.

One important principle in this magical Universe is that everything around you is a reflection of you, whether you want to face it or not.

In this case, a wolf may be reminding you that you, too, have very powerful characteristics that you should call upon at this time in your life.

As discussed earlier, wolves are strong, intelligent, communicative, loyal, and great at facing challenges.

These may be characteristics of your spirit that are being shown to you both in your waking life and in your dreams.

In particular, you may be receiving a spiritual message if you have a dream about wolves surrounding you.

Not to be mistaken for being attacked by a pack of wolves, a circle of wolves could be an invitation into the next phase of your spiritual journey.

This could be a clear indicator that the wolf spirit guide is here to help lead you throughout your healing journey.

How to Interpret The Deeper Meaning of Your Dreams 

Dreams can be difficult to understand if you don’t take the time to recount the small details.

If you don’t have a lot of experience with dream interpretation or have a hard time remembering your dreams, it could be helpful to leave a journal by your bedside to jot down everything you can remember from the night before.

Overtime, you’ll begin to recall more and more messages from your dreams, especially as you discover patterns and recurrences.

You’ll even find that as you are writing about your dreams it will jog your memory of more subtle details that can reveal a larger message.

Nothing is “too deep” when it comes to dream interpretation, so try to rely on your intuitive feelings rather than your conscious mind when you’re trying to understand your dreams.
