Bug

Interpretation

Spotting a bug in your dream can be a reminder that small things matter. A laboring ant may symbolize teamwork; a mysterious beetle invites curiosity. Feelings of irritation point to minor stressors multiplying in waking life. Alternatively, admiration for the bug’s perseverance highlights your own endurance.

Rather than swatting away the message, consider what this tiny visitor teaches about diligence, adaptability, or boundaries.

Common Meanings

• Attention to detail: Noticing minor issues before they escalate
