Help me interpret my dream?
I dreamed last night that I was outside my house, and I saw a snake, the same snake I saw once during a meditation getaway of sorts. The snake seemed angry and I ran from it, but it was faster than me and whenever it would get close to catching up I would turn around and it would stop and start moving side to side and I would slowly back away then turn and try to run again, this happened several times then, the lastaste time, instead of turning around, I held out a hand as if to block it, but instead it jumped into my arms and turned into a dog, and the dog was super friendly and just wanted to play. What could that symbolize?
