Carrion refers to the dead and decaying flesh of an animal. Dreaming of carrion represents the ideas of death and transformation – no, it’s not an omen that someone or something is going to die – rather, in dreams deaths are symbolic and represent transformation, change, or letting go. This could be in regards to anything – a belief, a thought, a relationship, or any kind of ending / transformation that is happening or has happened in your waking life. Of particular note with this dream symbol is that the flesh has been dead for some time – long enough that it is decaying. Thus, to see this dream symbol indicates that the change or transformation has already taken place or that the transformation is long overdue. Further, the change may have already begun, but you may be holding onto some last pieces of your former self. Alternatively, dreaming of carrion could indicate that something is bothering you, or “eating away” at you.
