It could mean a lot of things. How did it make you feel? Helpless, scared, worried?

It could mean you feel there's something out of control in your home or relationship. Maybe you feel there's a problem your ignoring and you think one day its going to catch up with you and become a disaster. How is your relationship... do you feel you can communicate clearly and effectively with him, or do you have trouble telling him things?Do you feel safe at home or do you worry about being robbed or intruded?

You said "protect myself", so the bison represents some type of power/out of your control force that you feel can harm you. Your husband not understanding you can mean some type of communication problem, or maybe you have been worried about him.

I hope this helped you figure it out! Just pay attention to how you feel and key symbols, and think about what those things mean to you in your day to day life. :)

the black baby bison it is you (your ego your black side fear etc.). the house his you also(the mind). and you has the observer in your house are you also(the spirit). did you understand the meaning the bathroom and you locking your self up? how can your husband understand if you do not understand your self? face your fear understand them and embrace them. and the black little bison will become white. experience and enjoy.

LapisLazuli has a good take on this...I have another, completely different idea that just popped into my head...Are you by any chance feeling tired and weak? You could be anemic...It might be as simple as that. Anemia can make you feel awful, and you would crave beef or any red meat...

I know, I know, it sounds crazy, but perhaps your body is trying to tell you something! It is at least worth thinking about. Read online about the mental effects of anemia, and see if they match your feelings of fear.

It's worth a shot.

Peace,

Well, it may not mean anything at all and only you, can interpret it. Just for fun and because you asked. The first thing that came to mind is - "is someone trying to "buffalo" you. Then I remembered, a bison and a buffalo are two different animals - in the same family but are different species - duh!

A buffalo represents or is a symbol of strength, perseverance & survival. They are gentle but rugged creatures. However; from your reaction - I think your dream is a warning; because you viewed it as a threat. It also is not very common for a bison to be black - dark energy. What is it that you fear? Why do you fear a baby bison? It wasn't trying to harm you. The worst it would do is to poop on your floor or damage furniture. Why was your first reaction fear? What mental images or emotions did the bison stir up in you?

A breakdown in communication or failure to communicate is the obvious interpretation of you not being able to warn your husband and he NOT being able to "understand" you - but - usually, the meaning of a dream isn't so obvious. What emotions does it trigger? What are scared of? Are you worried? The bison symbolizes survival . Is there something going on in your life which is threatening your home or your life - your survival? Something you can't survive? Is your marriage in trouble?

You expected the worst to happen and that it why you woke. Didn't you think your husband was capable of protecting you? Are there trust issues? Even though he couldn't "understand" you; he would still be able to see the bison if it entered your bedroom. Your husband can't figure out why you are so upset - he doesn't "understand" you. Are you worried your husband isn't doing enough? Are you overreacting to some event? Is he patient and calm; taking it day by day - saying it will all work out - but you are afraid and you think he needs to do more?

BTW - understand also means to appreciate. Do you feel valued?

Hello MoonWillow personally i find it a real cute dream, baby animals are malleable and cuddly and thrive on attention and kindness ... coming from the bathroom means it is clean and fresh, black meaning unknown depth or energy, and bison well,? i'll leave you to tell me about that. So in my mind the best thing to do is simply ask this sweet little animal what it can teach us ... you may be surprised :)
