Old Horse in dreams
Power, instinct, the appetites you can either ride or be carried by.
How old changes the reading
The base reading of Horse
A horse in a dream is your own vital force. A well-handled horse — saddled, responsive — is appetite under direction. A galloping wild horse is appetite that has decided where it is going without you.
A white horse is often connected to clarity of purpose; a black horse to drive that you have not yet let yourself name as yours. Falling off the horse is a setback in self-discipline rather than an actual injury.
A tired or starving horse is the body asking for care. You have been running on willpower for too long.
Where you often see it. A horse ridden across a field. A horse loose in a familiar yard. The dream uses the horse for power, instinct, the appetites you can either ride or be carried by.
What it is not. A horse is not always control. The dictionary reads it as the dreamer's powerful instinct and the dreamer's relationship to it.
Related in the dictionary. Read horse with bear, wolf, and any scene where strong instinct must be related to.
