Dream

Hi Ian My place of work was infested with very small mice – mostly appearing on the loo seats. I kept flicking them in and flushing them away one by one but there always seem to be more and more. I also want to put traps on the seats but am scared that I will sit on a trap by mistake and do myself a mischief. Thanks, Jonathan

Meaning

Dreaming of mice often indicates small problems and anxieties that individually appear to be quite unremarkable and inconsequential. However, these little worries can  mount up into bigger problems that are far more disturbing and destructive. The mice in your dream probably represent some seemingly minor issues and concerns that you have about certain situations in your workplace.

Although you are trying to ignore what is happening, all these little anxieties are accumulating into major worries for you and this is really gnawing away at your self confidence. Toilet seats often symbolise a place where we go to express our needs and relieve our inner tensions. Even though you are managing to deal with these apparently trivial problems one by one, it seems that you are not getting to the bottom of what is causing all your concerns.

You would like to express your concerns about particular workplace issues as soon as they arise but you feel that you will be seen as a mischief maker. You are also concerned that it might be a painful experience for you, but you need to decide if you are a man or a mouse and just say what is on your mind.
