If a reptile attacks you in a dream, brace yourself — significant trouble may be on the horizon. If you manage to kill the reptile in the dream, it signals that you will ultimately conquer whatever obstacles stand in your way. Dreaming of a dead reptile suddenly coming back to life suggests that conflicts you believed were resolved will flare up again, this time with more intensity and hostility than before. If you handle reptiles in the dream without being harmed, it means that while those around you may act with bitterness or irritability, you will find a way to restore harmony. For a young woman, dreaming of many different reptiles warns of competing tensions in her love life and relationships — and if one of them bites her, a rival may be positioning to take her place.
