Dreams About Crocodiles
Question
Dreams about crocodiles that come to harm the dreamer.
Answer
I do not recall a specific reference to crocodiles in a dream; however, we can learn from the words of the Rokach that seeing fish in a dream is usually a sign of blessing and a removal of the evil eye. I advise, as is my custom, to follow the counsel of our sages and go to the synagogue for the Shacharit prayer at the earliest opportunity, and at the time when the Kohanim bless with the Priestly Blessing, to recite this prayer:
Master of the universe, I am Yours, and my dreams are Yours; I had a dream and do not know what it is. May it be Your will, Hashem, my God and the God of my ancestors, that all my dreams, whether they are about myself or about others, and whether others dream about me, be for good. If they are good, strengthen and fortify them, and may they be fulfilled for me and for them as were the dreams of Yosef HaTzaddik, and if healing is needed, heal them as You did for Chizkiyahu, King of Judah, from his illness, and as for Miriam the prophetess from her tsara'at, and as for Naaman from his tsara'at, and as for the waters of Mara through our teacher Moshe. And just as You turned the curse of Bilaam the wicked from a curse to a blessing, so too turn all my dreams for me and for all of Israel to good, and protect me, and grant me favor, and accept me.
Amen: Wishing success – Menashe Yisrael
