What Does It Mean to Dream About a Gopher?

You may not want to read this if you fear rodents or gophers in particular.

A rodent’s life is usually full of hiding and avoiding predators, which makes them the perfect model for human behavior when we are feeling threatened by someone who frightens us. For many people, these fears can be triggered by even just seeing something that resembles an animal they dislike, like rats or snakes (or maybe those big-eyed fuzzy things). These feelings might also arise because some people feel their survival depends on what another person does. Hence, it feels like they’re being undermined and manipulated out from under themselves—sort of how animals with lower status rank seem to take advantage of higher-ranking individuals during times where limited resources exist, such as food sources.
