Dream Meaning of Buttocks

In the traditional dream lore of Anatolia, the buttocks carry a double edge: they speak of what sustains you—your spouse, your savings, your hidden affairs—and also of what humiliates you. A dream of buttocks rarely points to the body alone; it invites you to ask what you are holding onto, what you are spending, and who is turning away from you.

Seeing Buttocks

If you dream of buttocks in a general way, the old interpreters read it as a sign of your spouse and your property, or of a person who keeps secrets. Seeing the buttocks of a young man you know suggests you will not get the favour or affection you hope for from him. If the man is elderly and known to you, he may leave you behind in some matter; if he is an unknown old man, expect misfortune from a direction you cannot understand.

A Mother's Buttocks

To see your own mother's buttocks in a dream is a grave sign. If you are planning a pilgrimage, the journey may be cancelled or its blessing lost. If you have no such plan, your livelihood may become sluggish and your earnings fall short of your wishes. The dream asks you to look closely at your obligations to family and to your own spiritual commitments.

Blood and Feces

When blood or feces comes from the buttocks in a dream, the old commentators measure your spending by what you see. If the discharge happens in a toilet or other proper place, you will spend money for genuine needs. If it happens somewhere unsuitable, the spending will be wasteful and unnecessary. Blood that stains the surrounding area points to unlawful gain, while blood mixed with pain suggests you are being cleansed of sin.

Creatures Emerging

Creeping things that emerge from the buttocks carry news of family and children. Worms or lice mean you will separate from some of your relatives, perhaps by distance or by choice. A bird flying out promises a beautiful daughter, while a fish means the daughter or wife will be plain in appearance. If a snake emerges, it points to family members who live far away from you.

Touching and Cleaning

Cleaning a child's bottom in a dream carries two opposite readings. If the task disgusts you, you will face something that troubles your heart. If you feel no disgust, you will give loving care to someone and help them recover from illness. The state of your feelings in the dream is the key.

Actions and Posture

Approaching a woman from behind in a dream is interpreted as demanding something in an improper or unlawful way. Crawling along on your buttocks means you feel helpless and without support. Sitting on the buttocks, however, brings comfort; it is a sign that rest and relief are coming. Cutting off the buttocks means you may break family ties or dismiss a loyal helper.

The Buttocks as a Storehouse

In the older dream books, the buttocks are also a symbol of your wallet, your chest, your shop, or your meeting place. Any change you see in the buttocks—its size, its condition, its openness—reflects a change coming to these areas of your life. A blocked or closed buttocks was read as a very dark omen, sometimes even death.

Altogether, the buttocks in a dream are never simply ridiculous or crude. They ask you to examine what you keep hidden, what you spend, and what you are about to lose. Pay attention to the person involved and the specific action, and the dream will tell you its own truth.
