Pig

The pig dream is the king of dream omens — a byword for money luck. Holding a pig or seeing one enter your home suggests a windfall; many people buy a lottery ticket after this dream.

The pig stands for wealth and blessing. "A pig dream is a money dream" is an old saying, and the custom of buying a lottery ticket after dreaming of one survives to this day. What decides the reading is whether you caught the pig or let it get away.

Readings by Situation

Holding a pig or bringing one into the house

Money actually arriving. A contract you have been waiting on closes, or unplanned income appears — and the further into the house it comes, the more clearly it becomes yours.

A pig giving birth to many piglets

Wealth multiplying. One becoming many points to a business prospering or to happy occasions arriving in the household one after another.

Losing a pig, or a pig running away

A gain nearly in hand slipping past. This is a season when delaying a decision lets the chance drift off, so move quickly on whatever you have your heart set on.

Seeing a black or golden pig

The finest of the pig dreams. The black pig especially was held to bring substantial wealth — read it as a sizeable gain or a reward you have waited a long time for.

Buying a lottery ticket after a pig dream is a long-standing custom, but it guarantees nothing. Take it as a cheerful way to start the day and nothing more.
