It means you need to stop drinking whiskey before you go to work and move out of the trailer park.
Sorry, I couldn't resist..... That is just TOO darn funny.
An opossum? Never hear that one before.
Good luck!

Was the opossum mean? Were you scared (I guess you were if you were running from it) Are you female or male? There are many interpretations of dreams, but it is always good to find out the feelings about the opossum, the setting, the colors, etc. It is hard to interpret dreams on the objects and actions alone. I will take a stab at it. The thing I think about opossums is that they are wild animals, they have ugly faces but they are also very fertile and marsuppials, which means they carry their young in their sac, of course. So I would say that if you are a straight guy, there is a young woman who you don't like (that you know of) that is interested in you. She is looking for a man to father her child and you are scared to death about it. If you are a woman, I would say you are having problems with your Mom, or, you are struggling with baby issues.

Quite often these types of dreams suggest that there is something in your life that you are running from. You must figure out what you don't want to do, learn, say, or feel and do it, in order to make the dream go away.
With it being an opossum that was chasing you, I would say that the issue is not something hugely threatening, as an opposum is not normally known as an agressive animal, but it sure is ugly!

The current trend to dream interpretation has to do with the dreamer's own take on the dream.
1. What emotions were you feeling in the dream
2. What could that opossum symbolize to you?
3. Can you put the two answers together?

Depends on what an opossum is to you. Is it a sneaky thing? A cute thing? Something that you dont understand? Dreams are personal things and the symbols in your dreams are just as personal.

First, was the opossum alive or already dead on the highway? Were you running in slow motion while the opossum was running in regular motion?

As an opossum is a marsupial there is a link to the maternal pouch. I'd say you have a desire to become more independent from your mother...

oo, a possum. well, in the two books i have, they are not specific to that particular animal; however, if memory serves me, possums aren't very fast and "play dead" to escape injury, etc. so, the first book has that being chased is a metaphor for insecurity. you may feel circumstances are closing in on you and you are at the mercy of feelings that are out of control. you should maybe stop running and face up to something. the second book simply has that chasing is a comfortable old age is forecast if you are chased or seeing a chase.
