Subscribe to our Youtube channel about Angel Numbers:

Believe it or not, dreams about pooping are relatively common for people. Dreaming about defecation, feces, or peeing is one of the most common dreams dream analysts encounter.

Number 2 is something people do every day, but that’s not really the reason behind pooping dreams.

Truth is, there are no absolute truth and definitive answers when deciphering symbols or actions in the dream world.

Dreams are usually multilayered, and when it comes to bathroom dreams, they are often related to vulnerability, control, and a need to let things go. Sometimes, dreams about feces signify financial gains.

You should not be surprised if you dreamt about making stools. Poop or feces are surprisingly common dream subjects, and they have relatively significant meanings.

According to dream analysts, dreams about feces are among the ten most common dream scenarios. They are often related to the materiality, finances, and social status of a dream.

Releasing the past, negativity, emotional baggage

Dreams about pooping are often about how we dispose or don’t dispose of, something psychologically challenging. It could be thoughts or memories, a ‘load of shit,’ a burden you are carrying around through life.

Emptying bowels is a symbol of getting rid of harmful and destructive thoughts, psychological burdens. Defecating in a dream is often a representation of getting rid of something that costs you a lot of energy.

One of the most common scenarios within lavatory dreams is needing to pee or poop but not find the bathroom or a suitable place to do it. The dreamer is usually in an unusual, public place.

Hence, this dream is typically accompanied by feelings of embarrassment, shame, and anxiety. This usually makes the dreamer feel exposed and vulnerable.

If you had such a dream, you should ask yourself several important questions; are your feelings in a dream familiar to you? And by that I mean, not the feeling of needing to pee, but more on the symbolic level.

Evaluate your current life situation and think about when and where you feel anxious, desperate for privacy, searching for a ‘suitable spot’?

Society, there was always a cloud of shame that hovers over people going to the bathroom in a public place, even though it’s an entirely normal physical human need.

From a young age, we are raised to believe that the natural behaviors of pooping, burping, farting, and peeing are gross and disgusting and that it needs to be hidden from others.

However, the metaphor of disposing of is common enough. Just think of the idioms ‘our shit,’ ‘being in our shit,’ ‘dealing with other people’s shit.’ Defecating is often a metaphor for feelings we have when caught in our own illusions, acting out, when we are burdened, stuck, lost, or confused.

The message of a poop dream is generally releasing negative emotions like anxiety and embarrassment.

As is defecating, that is a natural process needed for a clear mind and a healthy life. It’s a shame people attach to the process that makes us sometimes feel like we actually don’t have the place to let go of all of our ‘shit.’

On the other hand, if you felt released and relaxed in your pooping dream, that is a terrific sign. Going to the bathroom publicly, without anxiety and concern, provides a sense of empowerment. You should fully embrace that dream.

What is this dream trying to tell you?

If you’ve seen yourself defecating in a dream, this is a sign that you are ready to take a step into a new life and wipe everything lousy inside of you. It means cleaning the slate, keeping the past in the past, and throwing away all sorrows and guilt. You can overcome those by changing some habits of your lifestyle.

Defecating also represents getting rid of negative feelings, emotions, false hopes, and deeds. It signifies redefining your way of life and the way you deal with other people.

In some cases, pooping in a public place shows your selfishness and self-covertness about your work. And if you’ve seen others defecate on you in the dream, this indicates that you feel that you’re worthless to them.

Generally, defecating in a dream represents getting rid of all unwanted, bad, and dirty things you’ve encountered in your life so far. Those are the actions needed to make a fresh start; you have to wash away all the dirt, wipe your slate clean, and make a clean start.

Pooping in a dream is a metaphor for releasing past experiences, and taking consequences, either good or bad, as a base for a new start in your life. This dream is hence a message that you need to overcome your bad habits, negativity, sentiments, emotions, sorrows, and bad memories that are blocking you from making a fresh start, causing you to feel guilty and in pain.

Because feces are related to parts of us we deem disgusting, dreams about pooping often symbolize an inside portion of us we feel is dirty, impure, or gross.

If you have frequent defecating dreams, you should think about what you did that wasn’t very nice or hurt someone? If your pooping dream is reoccurring, you should try to figure out what is causing you to dream about that and try to mend your mistakes.

Dreaming about feces often represents your disgust about some parts of your personality, a character trait, like laziness, a weight problem, hypocrisy… In this sense, poop means something you dislike about yourself.

Dreams about pooping also symbolize the elimination of the unnecessary, toxic feelings you might have, the process of purging you currently experiencing.

These dreams sometimes signify an unhealthy relationship, the one you should get away from and move on.

To dream of not getting rid of feces on your clothes or not being able to flush it down the toilet indicates troubles with letting go of certain emotions that have been suffocating you for a while now.

Hence, if you had this dream, it’s a sign that the time has come to release your emotional baggage and move on with your life. Think about what it is in the life that serves you no purpose anymore, and remove it. If you don’t, you could suffer fairly unpleasant consequences.

Sometimes, pooping dreams are related to money and financial concerns, and fears. In some cases, feces in a dream represents other people’s mess you have been dealing with or problems getting worse because of your interference and reckless behavior.

Dreams about feces also happen to warn you about a situation that is getting worse because you have not been paying attention.
