What Does Dreaming of a Wild Boar Mean?

Traditional Interpretation

In the tradition of Ibn Sirin and al-Nabulsi, the wild boar mostly points to unlawful wealth, a coarse and irreligious enemy, or a gain that brings no blessing even when obtained. Seeing a wild boar in a dream can indicate that one may encounter a stubborn, aggressive person heedless of the bounds of the lawful; eating its meat may be interpreted as a toilsome yet fleeting portion.

Psychological View

In modern psychology, the wild boar can mostly be read as a reflection of suppressed anger, raw instincts, and uncontrollable urges; it may indicate that the dreamer's boundaries are being strained in some matter, or that they are holding down a rising reaction within. It can also be a symbol of the need to press stubbornly toward a goal, to protect oneself, and to claim one's primal strength.

By Context

An Attacking Wild Boar

Seeing a wild boar charging at you can indicate an approaching conflict, a stubborn enemy backing you into a corner, or your suppressed anger reaching its breaking point.

Killing or Driving Off the Wild Boar

According to the Ibn Sirin tradition, killing a wild boar or driving it away may be interpreted as prevailing over an enemy, or breaking free from a bad habit or an unlawful gain.

For Singles

For a single person, the wild boar can be an inner warning about the possibility of meeting someone coarse and ill-matched in temperament, or about a relationship that should not be rushed.

For Married People / a Herd of Wild Boars

For a married person, seeing a wild boar or a whole herd can point to discord that may arise in the family circle, to worries over the lawfulness of one's wealth, or to self-interested people around you; patience and caution are advised.
