A squirrel is the instinct to tuck away what is needed for the days when the pantry runs low. This dream is about the small, careful work of pulling things together so that your home remains secure. It is the instinct to tuck away enough to keep the hearth warm when the winds turn cold.
You are looking at the small provisions that make a life sturdy. I once spent an entire afternoon gathering wood just to feel the weight of it in my hands, and I know that feeling of preparing for what is to come. If the dream shows you being overwhelmed, you are standing in the open against a sudden pressure without the shelter you have built. You find yourself standing without the protection of your own preparations.
The capacity to look ahead is already within you. You possess the wisdom to recognize what is worth keeping.
The appearance of chipmunks means your focus is on the very smallest of savings. These tiny creatures remind you that even the most modest bit of thrift adds to your strength.
When you are feeding a squirrel or saving a squirrel, you are actively supporting the part of yourself that plans for the future. You are looking after your own needs with care, and you find that you can rely on yourself to see things through.
If the dream involves being attacked by a squirrel, you are facing a sudden surge of trouble that leaves you feeling exposed.
A dead squirrel indicates that a small way of passing the time or a minor way of gathering has come to an end. This loss of a small resource is a sign that a particular method of preparation is no longer serving you.
The act of killing a squirrel shows you are ending a trivial pursuit. You are cutting away a small, perhaps useless, effort that has been taking up your energy.
For its more general meaning: Dream about rodents
Benedita LumeInterpreter interprets your dreams
Well, dear, the old houses never treated a dream as a stranger at the door. A dream was given a chair at the table like a cousin from far away. Most of what it carries is a warm sign about the life already around you, and even a hard one is usually a reminder about something small at home. Rest easy. The house is still standing.
