Owen SterlingCatching an octopus in a dream is the mind attempting to seize or manage a situation that has many moving parts. This process of grasping occurs when the brain tries to consolidate various strands of a complex reality that have become difficult to track or control.
The dream identifies a tendency to reach for something that is inherently difficult to hold. Attempting to keep a hold on every shifting limb can exhaust the dreamer. The dream identifies a tendency to reach for something that is inherently difficult to hold. The effort to manage these many directions at once is a heavy labor.

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.
