You dream of an animal in the garden

It does not have to be a garden per se, but if you see an animal in your dream, it could mean that you are anxious about how you behave socially. You might be having anxiety about not being accepted by other people or are scared that you are behaving in a way that offends others. An animal also symbolizes your intuition and your ability to assert yourself, as well as your confidence.

So if you dream about this, think of what has affected your confidence or your view of yourself lately? You are usually more than you give yourself credit for. There might also be a need to improve on a couple of behaviors so that you can feel more socially skilled. And, most importantly, you have to define yourself, and not let others do. Self-awareness goes a long way towards having a solid identity.
