Pig In Dream

Pigs have long been associated with interesting dream folklore. For example it was very lucky to find a pig when walking into town in ancient times (1800s). Pigs can often represent happiness and good news in a dream. Seeing a pig in a dream is also connected to a childlike attitude in life. There could be something that is immature in regards to a relationship or that material wealth will be yours.
