VULTURE
Biblical dream symbol meaning
How vulture appeared in your dream
Dreaming of a vulture circling overhead with sharp, piercing eyes — The vulture represents keen spiritual discernment and the ability to perceive what others cannot see, symbolizing God's all-seeing nature and the need to develop spiritual awareness in your own life.
Job 28:7
Seeing a vulture perched alone in a barren, desolate wilderness — A vulture in a desolate place signifies spiritual loneliness, isolation, or a season of wilderness in your faith journey where you must work out your salvation with fear and trembling.
Isaiah 34:15Philippians 2:12
Watching vultures gathering around something dead or dying in your dream — Vultures gathering represent impending judgment, spiritual death, or the consequences of sin; they serve as a warning to examine your spiritual condition and turn from sin before it consumes you.
Matthew 24:28Luke 17:37Romans 6:1
Dreaming of a vulture as an unclean, menacing creature preying on weakness — The vulture symbolizes demonic forces, evil spirits, and opportunistic evil that seeks to exploit your spiritual weaknesses and moral failures; it represents the need to guard against unclean influences.
Leviticus 11:13-14
Dreaming of a vulture representing someone who takes without effort or lives off others' spiritual labor — The vulture symbolizes spiritual parasites who seek blessings without personal spiritual effort, preferring to 'plow with another person's calf' rather than pursuing their own relationship with God. Such people rely on others' revelations and refuse to renew their minds, living off old inspiration instead of seeking fresh encounters with God. This represents a warning against spiritual laziness and dependency.
Romans 6:1Philippians 2:12
Seeing vultures attempting to consume or attack a sacrifice on an altar in your dream — Vultures attacking sacrifices represent spiritual forces (demonic or human) attempting to destroy or consume your offerings to God—your time, commitment, and devotion. When you have surrendered your life as a living sacrifice, vultures seek to devour it through doubt, temptation, and inappropriate behavior before God accepts your offering. Like Abraham driving away the fowls, you must actively protect your spiritual commitment by resisting negative thoughts and wrong attitudes until God receives your sacrifice.
Genesis 15:11Genesis 3:14
Dreaming of a vulture representing someone with an ungrateful, complaining attitude who constantly looks to the past — The vulture symbolizes those with ungrateful hearts who always claim the former days were better, never satisfied with present blessings. These individuals want everything freely given yet remain thankless, representing foolishness and lack of wisdom. This warns against developing a critical, dissatisfied spirit that rejects current blessings while romanticizing the past.
Ecclesiastes 7:10
Seeing a vulture interfering or meddling in others' affairs in your dream — The vulture represents those who inappropriately involve themselves in matters that don't concern them, sometimes stirring people to act against their better judgment. This symbolizes busybodies and manipulators who prey on others' situations for their own purposes, warning against both becoming such a person and allowing such interference in your life.
Genesis 15:11
