Catching a goat occurs when the mind attempts to secure a resource or a way of life that is inherently difficult to hold. This dream shows the brain trying to grip a source of living or a temperament that will not be guided. The process of capture serves to consolidate something that is currently perceived as elusive or uncooperative.
The difficulty of the task is what defines the experience. The failure of the object to yield to the hand points to a clash with a hard reality or a person who stays unyielding. This tension is a sign of the brain trying to reconcile a desire for stability with a source of unpredictability. The exhaustion of the attempt is a present reality. There is a clarity that comes from knowing exactly where the resistance lies.
The act of chasing a goat shows that the struggle is one of distance, where the dreamer follows a path toward an object that has not yet been reached. This movement indicates that the effort is currently focused on the acquisition rather than the management of the stubborn element. The dream shifts from a matter of control to a matter of pursuit.

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.
