Strange Goat Encounters: A Week of Unexplained Signs
I would first want to ask, what do goats mean to you? Goats can mean different things to different people. Or what is your relationship with these coworkers you mentioned? Because you say your head is hot, I'd guess it has something to do with the goat's horns, like are you butting heads? This could be literally butting heads with these coworkers. Is that energy with these coworkers a little combative? That would be something I would want to ask.
The goat also makes me think about Capricorn energy, so it could be some weird Capricorn energy coming into there. Maybe you have issues with Capricorns. So from a Capricorn angle, it's strength and determination.
I would just say look at what your relationship is like with your coworkers and see if there's any type of combative energy. It may be something that you’re not even picking up on every day, but it could be a subconscious thing. Maybe your subconscious is picking up that there's some combative energy with these people, and so it's coming out in the dreams, and you're being shown goats for that. It could be - that’s what I would say without having more information.

How do you interpret dreams?
If I know ahead of time that someone wants this service, I will have them keep a detailed journal. And then I will ask them for the dream in as much detail as they can recall from start to finish before I ever open my mouth.
Then I start asking questions. Could you smell anything in your dream? Or any other sensory things that they were picking up on? Because those are all little signs of what the other symbology is trying to say in the dream. Were they fearful? Were they excited? How were they actually feeling? Where do you feel this in your body when you think about that? For example, if they feel it in their gut, that's their solar plexus chakra, that's the seat of your personal power. Are you cramping, or does your throat hurt if you think about it? What are you feeling now that we're talking about it? So it's just asking a lot of questions.
If they are afraid of something in their waking hours, then we try to look at why it's coming up in a dream and what it means. So it's looking at all the different aspects of whatever is coming in with that dream for them and then trying to meld it with what's going on in their life. Because then I may ask other questions like, Have you started a new job? Have you started dating someone? Because those things come up in dreams sometimes when big changes happen. So it's not only finding out what's going on in the dream, then it's finding out what's going on personally in their life too.
It’s a lot listening with my ears, but also watching facial expressions and body language. If it's in person, I'm also reading their energy, too. I'm trying to listen for inflections in their voice and how it changes. All of those little cues I'm trying to bring into it when I'm working with someone and trying to interpret something for them.
