Opportunities, transitions, choices
Pig
Abundance, indulgence, earthiness
Door
Doors represent opportunities, transitions, and choices. An open door symbolizes new possibilities and welcoming change, while a closed or locked door may represent missed opportunities or barriers. Knocking on a door suggests seeking access or trying to reach someone. Multiple doors can represent the many choices available to you.
Pig
Pigs in dreams can represent abundance and prosperity (piggy bank symbolism), earthiness and groundedness, or overindulgence and gluttony. In Chinese culture, pigs represent wealth, fortune, and honest work. In Western symbolism, pigs are sometimes associated with sloth and excess. The context of the dream determines which meaning applies — a happy pig on a farm differs greatly from a pig in filth.
