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.
Searching
Searching in dreams represents the universal human quest for meaning, answers, or something missing from life. The object of the search reveals what you're seeking: searching for a person suggests longing for connection, searching for an object suggests seeking a specific solution, searching without knowing what for represents existential seeking. The search itself may be more important than what's being sought.
