When you see a cockroach in your sleep, try to ignore your own fear or queasiness and realize that they are a symbol of resilience in life – you will make it through a tough situation. If you don’t know me already, I’m Flo and I will provide you with a better understanding of your dream. There are six families of cockroach and sometimes it’s hard to identify which one appeared in your dream. Polyamide, cryptocerdidae , nocticolidae , balattidae , balberidae and blattellidae. Yes, complex words took me a while to type – but it is important to have a detailed understanding of what this little creature means in your dream, I will break down your dream from both a spiritual and psychological perspective unlike other dream dictionaries, I have been learning about dreams for 20 years. The first thing I will say is that, roaches in dreams are also connected to clearing and cleaning in life.

What is the dream psychology of a cockroach dream?

After much research, the meaning of a cockroach in regard to dream psychology can be broken down into various sections, which I have detailed below. They generally hide in dark places and are metaphorically speaking can be a danger to your spiritual well-being. So here goes:

  • Resilience: As I mentioned in the opening paragraph cockroaches can indicate in dreams that you are resilient in your life or in response to problems that occur. This symbol can indicate that you are trying to heal from trauma or you are reconnecting with yourself and others. Did you know that cockroaches can live through just about anything – even a thermonuclear war! Some scientists tested nuclear radiation on a group of cockroaches which resulted in around 10% being able to survive some hard exposure. So, a world abandoned by humans the cockroach may out live us. The original idea of this came from “The cockroach papers” A compendium of History and Lore” and this research led to me believe that the cockroach could outlive anything due to their simple makeup. We would probably die from a dose of 1000 rads but that pesky little cockroach can withstand at least ten times that much. So, spiritually this is just in connection with the fact that you can withstand anything! To see more than one cockroach in a dream is a sign that you must persevere with difficult experiences and there will be occasions which may change your perspective. The cockroach symbolism in a dream indicates guidance and support is needed. Of course, your own “resilience” in a given situation. It is important to also say that there could be a part of your life that you wish to “exterminate” just like how we want to kill a cockroach. Cockroaches have been on this earth for millions of years. In fact, almost 300! They are a common insect and have an amazing hardiest compare to other creatures. I know its gross but the American cockroach lived for 5 seconds when put in the microwave (study by Perry, 1986) and the German cockroach lasted for 10 seconds. So, to conclude, the longevity of a cockroach indicates that they have a hidden spiritual trait of being able to “overcome” anything in life.
  • Hidden thoughts: Cockroaches are great at hiding. They can live in the smallest crack in the darkest part of the house. They are also nocturnal so only normally come out at night. This is why, you will only see a small number of them around while others are hiding somewhere in the house. They are nocturnal and always run when exposed to light. They are good at detecting even the smallest movement which will cause them to run for cover. Therefore, the rebirth maybe hidden. A new start but you do not realize. Sometimes negative situations in life are the result of
  • Cleaning your thoughts: As cockroaches are considered unsanitary they have been known to represent self-cleansing, renewal, and rejuvenation of your spiritual, emotional and psychological well-being. After such a dream you will need to focus on a re-examination of your life and clean out your clutter. If you are planning something important and then you dream of a cockroach, it is a positive sign which indicates you will start celebrating soon. It could be a wedding, constructing a new home, changing jobs, or relocating.
  • Rebirth: The cockroach as a large, oval body which is shield-like. Grouped with a long antenna. Due to the oval shape as mentioned in the opening paragraph, they are connected to rebirth due to the Latin translation of oval into an egg. I don’t want to freak you out but the female cockroach does not need a male to reproduce. There was a study by the biology department of the University of Massachusetts and the American cockroach can reproduce parthenogenetic eggs when there are no males. This is a scary thought right. Female cockroaches running the world! So, due to these reasons, the dream can indicate a massive “change” in your life and if you are female then you will be independent. If you are a male and you dream of cockroaches then this can suggest that in time you will rely on a strong female. I will now move onto the spiritual meaning of the cockroach.

What is the general meaning of seeing a cockroach in a dream?

This little creature has been on the earth during the time of dinosaurs, they run around and scurry into dark corners. In dreams, they often appear when you are working through issues with friends and loved ones these are reflections of guilt because of your own focus on concentrating on stamina and hardship. Cockroaches are the symbol of tenacity. Dreaming of many roaches or being overrun by cockroaches is a negative dream indicating that you do not have the strength to keep your promises or know that you are letting people down. A few roaches in a dream or a big roach is just fine – because they show that you can beat the odds and even if you have taken on a lot, you will adapt and be okay. Consider in your own life, how you are overreaching, or if you are taking on too much and realize that right now. If you have already made commitments, then you need to stick to them and be creative and adaptive in your surroundings. The worst situations will pass and you will be left standing – you can make it through a difficult time in your life but you have to take it one day at a time.
