Owen SterlingBeing a cannibal in a dream shows how the mind handles a time of fierce, self-consuming competition. This imagery arises when the mind attempts to consolidate experiences of rivalry where the boundaries between one’s own interests and the interests of others have become dangerously blurred. The psychological mechanism is one of internalizing conflict to understand how a struggle for resources or position might be eroding the dreamer’s own sense of stability.
The dream indicates that a drive to succeed is currently functioning in a way that threatens to deplete the very foundations of the self. This occurs when the mind rehearses the cost of a particular contest, identifying how the pursuit of a goal might be consuming the energy required to sustain it. Such a dream points to a need to distinguish personal growth from the depletion caused by opposition. The recognition of this process provides a way to observe the friction without being lost to it.
For its more general meaning: Dream about cannibalism
Owen SterlingInterpreter interprets your dreams
Many people believe a frightening dream announces something, when more often the brain was simply sorting the days just before it. During the night the mind files what was carried over from recent hours, and what gets filed loudest is what was felt most. A rough night leaves a residue by morning that fades with daylight. Nothing was sent. The sleeper was working, and the work is done.
