Dreaming of a gorilla signifies power and strength. However, this power is an uncontrollable force leading to postponed success. Gorillas enjoy close knit family networks lead by alpha males, and rising to the top position of power is determined and selected by a strong monarch.
The meaning of the gorilla in the dream may signify to be dominant in one’s life – interest, personality and so on. It may signify a need to assert oneself and take care of things with courage and persistent spirit possible through forgiving oneself for weaknesses and getting past feelings of not being able to compete without holding back.
Another interpretation of a gorilla in a dream is that it represents the need to take control of your life or assert yourself. Gorillas are known for their assertiveness and dominance, and they could be a sign that you need to be more assertive in your life or take control of a situation that you have been passively observing. This could be related to a specific situation in your life or a general feeling of not being in control of your life.
A gorilla in a dream could also represent a sense of deep-seated anger or aggression. Gorillas are known for their powerful displays of aggression, and they could be representing a feeling of anger or frustration that you have been repressing in your waking life.
In my dream I saw two gorillas in water(river or lake) and the water pulls me inside like a slide and while sliding I am thinking that I know swimming and gauging the distance between me and the gorillas and how I can make my way out safely from them. I don’t remember anything after that.
Thanks for sharing your dream. This could represent the fear of the unknown and the need to escape from something in real life. If the two gorillas are not something you fear, then this dream may be about feeling stuck or not being able to move forward. It may also show self-doubt and anxiety about your current situation.
I had a dream that I was at my fathers house for a get together for his wife (who isn’t that pleasant). I brought my new boyfriend. My fathers wife was trying to grill eggs and yet it wasn’t working. I kept looking at her like what the heck are you doing. I go down to the driveway and there is this aged gorilla (black with some silver on him). He was walking on his legs towards me. Very masculine look. Absolutely toned. Anyway he makes way towards me and looked at me and made this hand gesture with his hand for me to leave like … I was out of the game and go home and I have 111 seconds to leave. I was excited and said okay great, I am out. My boyfriend started to make fun of him and then I thought it was funny. So the gorilla started making more gestures that it’s time for me to leave. He spun around and then ended up with his back to me and my boyfriend and kicked back like he pointed at me again this time with only one foot. My boyfriend mocked him and told him that foot is so big it was like you pointed at both of us. The gorilla was confused and adamant on me leaving and that’s when I woke up.
Dreamt our city was being attacked or overthrown by Gorillas. We were in a building in an elevator and each floor was monkeys or gorillas and they were taking over the population. We had boarded up the entrances. We were in lines . I ended up in an elevator over the scene of chaos and when I landed I saw people still trying to get to safety inside this big commercial building. We were all inside a big building trying to stay safe from the hundreds of gorillas in the city.

Hi
I dream of gorillas under a strange community leader’s care. My friend and l visited the community for an unknown reason. On arrival that friend of mind attempt to pick one of the gorillas to sit on it. The gorillas snach my friend and hide him. After sometimes waiting for our host to free him, I realise that, they have no intention of doing so. At that time I went strait to where the gorillas are and free my friend from their grip.
Please somebody help me with the meaning of this dream
Hi,
I had a very strange dream last night. It had two apes huge supposedly Gorillas in a forest and i felt as if i’m one of them or witnessing them but i wasn’t present there. Both of them seemed like a couple and were shaving hair from each other’s body Please help me decode this dream.
I just had a dream that I was at a zoo with my newlywed husband and a gorilla escapes its cage and starts attacking people, I find myself losing my husband and trying to find him AND hide from the gorilla at the same time. People end up dying in my dream, and although I never actually saw it, my thoughts tell me it was the gorilla? Also, every time I would move from a certain hiding spot the gorilla would see me and try to get me and attack me, I am completely frightened the entire time and in the end the zookeepers end up killing the gorilla right in front of me before it attacked me.
what does this mean? please help!!
I believe our dreams can help us in our regular life. In mine, I walked into a semi-familiar living room and on the couch was a gorilla that I seemed familiar with. I wasn’t scared, i went to lay on the couch with the gorilla and cuddle. It felt good. In the dream I never had a thought of fear or gender if it. But it was more the shape and size of a female gorilla. I enjoyed and felt comfort with it. I remember the hands a bit, I think rubbing my head-big and black.
I’m a married middle aged male with 4 fully grown children.

I dream a lot, normally don’t think much of them but had one last night involving a gorilla that has me kind of shook up:
I am walking along a street and see a house I want to enter…. I walk up the steps and from a side yard, a gorilla roars and leaps at me, attaching himself to my left arm. Once attached, he shrinks in size but I can feel him breathing, his paws and teeth all dug into my arm.
Frightened but not wanting to excite him, I start walking around to people on the street asking them to get me help. Some look confused, some say they will but don’t. I desperately want the police to arrive with guns to shoot him. (I somehow know without a gun, he’ll hurt me badly.)
I see a business on the corner… it’s a bar… it’s very very old and as it turns out, I’m in Europe. The police arrive without guns and say they will help. At this point, the gorillas limbs began rotting off and finally I just have innards and blood on my arm… the police and I pull and tear it away and I look up to them and we’re all in disbelief of what we’ve saw.
Never had one like this before. The blood and guts at the end kinda made me scared once I woke up. Thoughts?
I have recurring dreams of my parents taking me to the zoo to see gorillas. I remember so vividly the gorillas were sitting around and looking right back at me.
I dream a big black gorilla was after me want to have sex with me. In a dream I could jump high and run on top of the roof telling it I’m a child of God it’s an abomination for human having sexual relationship with animals. It was like this gorilla slept with one girl I know now it want me.
I dreamed that a body builder was warming up and then all his muscles began to pop out and then his face and body transformed into a black gorilla and it ran very fast in front of me and then came to a stop and you could feel the peace then
