Earthquake
Earthquake dreams represent fundamental disruption — something shaking the very foundations of your life or beliefs. These dreams often appear during major life changes: divorce, job loss, health crises, or identity shifts. The intensity of the earthquake reflects how deeply you feel the change affects your core stability.
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.
