Dreaming of Bats

Bats are only active at night and symbolize disaster.

Dreaming of bats signifies bad luck, illness, and disaster.

If you dream of a bat flying by, it indicates safety and a joyful life.

Dreaming of a swarm of bats suggests a positive outcome.

To Westerners, bats are fearful creatures associated with subconscious content related to early traumatic experiences, as they are nocturnal animals.

On the other hand, bats can also symbolize intuitive wisdom. Since bats navigate in darkness without using their eyes, they represent intuition. In the East, the pronunciation of "bat" is similar to "fortune," so sometimes dreaming of bats symbolizes obtaining happiness.

However, the Western legend of bats being vampires has spread widely and influenced the East through literary works, so sometimes bats represent things associated with blood-sucking.

Therefore, whether dreaming of bats is auspicious or inauspicious depends on the entire dream.
