Dreaming of Poop Means Money, Here's Why

Dreaming about poop is always weird. I can imagine what was going through your mind when you woke up from that dream. You were probably like, “Ew, why was I dreaming about poop?” Totally understandable to be grossed out or confused by it. Dreams are so strange sometimes, putting all kinds of random things in our heads while we sleep, but they are never exactly what they seem. There’s usually a deeper meaning to the things you see when you’re asleep.

Can you believe something gross, like poop, could represent something good? Dreams are full of symbols, so you have to look past what’s right in front of you at what it all might mean.

Why Is Poop Associated With Money?

Back in the old farming days, poop was super important for fertilizing crops. The farmers would spread it on their fields to help the plants grow big and strong. With better harvests, they could sell more of their produce and make more money. That’s really where the whole “poop equals money” idea came from. Without cow poo and chicken poo to fertilize the soil, people wouldn’t have been able to grow things like fruits and veggies. Those were pretty much the only way farmers could make money at the time.

It’s not just an old wives’ tale either. Lots of cultures throughout history have thought the same thing. Even the ancient Greeks and Native Americans associated pooping dreams with financial success. And if you think about it, poop does kind of look like little piles of “golden” coins, so it makes sense!

Poop Omens

When I was little, I stepped in some by accident. I thought for sure my mom would be mad, but you know what she did? She just smiled and said I was lucky! I didn’t get why at the time, but now I understand some cultures view poop as a sign of prosperity. Guess my mom knew something I didn’t – that poop on your shoe means money is coming your way!

As weird as it sounds, lots of places believe if you get poop on you, money will stick to you. I know, the whole thing is kind of gross, but why not take poop dreams or step into poop as a sign to go buy a lottery ticket from now on?

Poop Symbolism In Dreams

Sometimes, when we feel stuck in a rut, our dreams will show that. Apparently, if you’ve been dreaming about poop, it means your subconscious wants you to let go of whatever has been holding you down lately. Just like how when you have to go to the bathroom, getting rid of what’s inside makes you feel better. Dreaming about poop is good luck – better times are coming your way soon!

Dreams can definitely be weird sometimes. But they also seem to show us what’s really going on internally and what we need to work on. So if you’ve had some poop dreams lately, it might mean it’s time for some kind of transformation in your life. This change could help you grow financially or become wealthier.

Other than money, poop dreams can represent a fresh start. When you poop, your body is getting rid of what it doesn’t need. Just like dreaming about poop could symbolize shedding old habits or old ways of thinking. So the poop is flushing away your old self to make room for an improved new you!

Unless, of course, you’re dreaming about actually eating or doing poop in front of people. Then it might mean you’re feeling embarrassed. But overall, poop dreams often have a more positive meaning about change and growth.

Biblical Meaning of Feces In A Dream

In the Bible, dreaming about poop has a bit of a different meaning than what you might find in other old or new dream dictionaries. If you have a dream involving poop, according to the Bible, it’s seen as representing feeling unclean or lacking spiritually, and it would bring a sense of shame. Essentially, it’s saying your mind, body, and soul aren’t in a pure state.

You may wake up feeling embarrassed, guilty, or like you aren’t good enough. The poop in your dream is symbolic of having impure feelings, being spiritually poor, and experiencing disgrace. It’s definitely not the most uplifting dream symbol! It ties into ideas of feeling ashamed of yourself, thinking badly about who you are, or feeling unworthy.

It can also indicate that your life lacks righteousness and faith. The Bible says:

You shall have a place outside the camp, and you shall go out to it. And you shall have a trowel with your tools, and when you sit down outside, you shall dig a hole with it and turn back and cover up your excrement.
Deuteronomy 23:12-13

How Do I Know My Dream Talks About Money?

It’s impossible to know exactly what your poop dream was about without more details. Personally, though, if I dreamed about stepping in poop or rubbing it all over, I’d think good things were coming my way, like money or success.

Dreams are strange, for sure, but without knowing more about your dream – who was in it, where it took place, what exactly happened – it’s tough to say for certain what the poop represented.

For example, dreaming about poop on your clothes or eating it doesn’t necessarily mean what you might think. Sometimes, it can symbolize someone trying to feed you a lie or make you believe something that just isn’t true. Maybe a friend is telling you something fishy, or you started thinking something was real when it wasn’t.

One last thing before wrapping this up – if you dreamed about pooping in the toilet, it usually means letting something go from your life that’s no longer serving you. And those dreams about poop everywhere? Those are actually good signs things will be looking up soon. You might pay off debt or find more financial freedom. Essentially, it’s telling you that you’re getting rid of a heavy load you’ve been carrying.
