Jesse Rasmussen Symbolic meaning of the Hyena: Aim (purpose): 1. What is the Symbolic meaning of the Hyena’s purpose? The symbolic meaning of the Hyena’s purpose is to show bad omens usually in the future. As the author of an article on Auntyflo(astrology oracles, astronomy,etc.) states, “Generally, it is considered that a hyena in your dream signifies impurity, instability and dishonesty”(AuntyFlo). The Hyena appears to be a bad omen in most cases. Some cases it may not be true, but the hyena in dreams can mean bad things will happen. These bad things can lead to wrong life decisions. With these wrong life decisions, you could end up dying, getting sick, or injured. With the potential of all of this happening considering the fact of a Hyena being a bad Omen in dreams at least could put people in danger.

Audience : 1. Who is the primary audience for the Symbolic meaning of the Hyena? The primary audience for the Symbolic meaning of the Hyena is people of which could be in danger. This could also point to those of which do bad things, or have done bad things. As the author of the article in AuntyFlo states, “To dream that you are being attacked by a hyena tells you to beware of false friends...If in your dream you see a hyena in a cage, you may get a skin disease”(AuntyFlo). People will be able to foresee danger in their future, near or far. With being able to know this, they will know that bad things will most likely come from what has happened. With seeing a hyena trapped in a cage, people may be seeing that they may get skin disease in the future. With the warning of false friends when being attacked, people will be more on the lookout for fake people in their lives.

Historical : 4. Using PIECE, explain why or why not history be made from the Symbolic meaning of the Hyena? I don’t believe that history will ever be made from this. Most people don’t seek out their dreams as fortunes, or as a scene in the forthcoming future. As Dream Interpretation explains, “If you see a hyena in your dreams, you will meet much disappointment and much ill luck in your undertakings, and your companions will be very uncongenial”(Dream Interpretation). People will most likely never remember if they had a hyena in their dreams. Not everyone even knows what a hyena is. If people see these dreams, they most likely won’t have a big reaction to what they had seen. People will most likely just let the dream pass by like the thousands of other dreams they have already dreamt. Most people don’t think of most dreams as significant whatsoever. When people get to this point of seeing this, they will not foresee any future events happening, not allowing it to become a big historical impact.

Cultural : 1. How do cultural events influence the relationship between the Symbolic meaning of the Hyena and its audience? The cultural events influence the relationship of the Symbolic meaning of the Hyena and its audience by showing that people could be scared by their views in their dreams. People could see these animals as fierce, and rightly so, as it is very dangerous. As Out to Africa states, “Over the years hyenas and humans have come into close contact in Africa and, in earlier times, in Asia and in Europe, often leading to mutual predation...Reputed to be cowardly and timid, the hyena can be bold and dangerous, attacking animals and humans”(“Out To Africa: Hyena facts”). People fear the hyena. This animal is a predator of which people get killed by. When people see these animals in their dreams I would guess that they would be afraid! These animals rightly deserve the reputation they have. They put fear in their prey, when people see these animals in their dreams, I would definitely assume that it would make out something that is bad luck.
