What Does It Mean to Dream About Feces?

To dream of feces or poop represents aspects of yourself that are unneeded or unwanted. Something in your life that is worthless to you or that you'd prefer to be rid of completely.

Feces appearing in a dream in an inappropriate manner may reflect a problem that's resurfacing of which you would prefer no involvement with. Problem situations you are careful to avoid.

Negatively, feces or poop in a dream may reflect problems that have been made worse. Reckless or irresponsible behavior that has aggravated a problem that will require attention to clean up.

To dream of eating feces or poop represents problems or undesirable situations being experienced. You or someone else that is accepting "shit" conditions into their life.

To dream of feces in your hands represents a problem you feel is "in your hands." Trouble you are dealing with. Possibly a symbol for having too much money, legal problems, or relationship trouble you need to deal with. Alternatively, having pooh or feces in your hands may be a sign that you feel stupid that something you planned will not work out as expected.

To dream of a home or property covered in feces may reflect waking life situations where you are experiencing a "shitty" situation or "real mess." A dangerous problem that has gotten out of hand.

Example: A man dreamed of seeing poop all over his house. In waking life he had intentionally ignored advice thinking he didn't have to listen to it and was shocked to discover that he had created an embarrassing problem that required him to carefully fix the problem and then finally follow the original advice.

Example 2: A man dreamed of seeing cow dung and being careful to avoid it. In waking life he felt the had created a problem by being too caring about a woman he had met in church. She became too obsessed with religion after he consoled her. He felt the need to avoid her because talking to her with her new obsession was now uncomfortable and embarrassing for him.

These are common dreams that connected the dreamer to ‘letting go’ of negative aspects in your life. Metaphorically this has been something inside you that you have gotten rid of or trying to. Noticing feces in a toilet bowl suggests stagnation, things that should be removed are staying still. Feces on the dreamers hand suggest cleaning mistakes and embarrassing issues relating to work. If you see feces all over the ground it relates to unconscious negative thoughts or behaviors that need to be attended too. Feces in water are related to the emotional side of the dreamer, a need to be flushed out and cleaned.
