Okay, not long ago I had a strange dream. I dreamt I was in a field with a psychotic looking black horse. In real life, I love all animals, particularly horses. So I attempt to approach the horse. The horse is very wild and behaves in quite an intimidating way. It tosses it's head and mane and canters around like a nutter of a thing... I was only a little scared though, so I continue to attempt to befriend it. I manage to stroke the horse on the neck and it calms down a little bit. After a while some lady appears on another horse, presumably the black horse's owner. She just smiles at me and says well done, you can ride him now, then she continues meandering along. I do think this is a little bit strange, but I go off down a path in search of tack for the horse regardless. I enter a yard and it's bustling with people, kids and horses. All these horses are tame and well-behaved. Everyone seems busy and preocupied... nobody even seems to notice me. For some odd reason I pick up a strangely shaped bucket. I seem happy with my bucket, thinking that the horse could probably do with a drink. So I wander back up the path. I look left and right. I can't see the horse anywhere. I feel very confused, because I was sure that I went the right way, however I eventually decide I must have gone the wrong way. At that exact moment I saw a large back creature appear from just over the horizon. The big beast of a thing is travelling very fast and in my direction. I think at first it could be the horse, but in the moment following I realise in horror that it's a black bull. Immediately I bolt across the field, desperate to get away from the wild beast thundering at my heels. I was terrified! I dart between trees, hoping to lose him, but think that it's very likely that the bull will catch up. Miraculously though, I get away, and then I wake up.

I didn't think much more on this dream at the time, it was just a bad dream... but just last night I had a dream about a black horse... that lead me to wonder if it was the same one. In this one I'm walking through another field. There are rather small looking grey ponies, who start chasing me. I run to the end of the field, and then I'm safe. No big deal, right? Wrong! I enter another field and in this one there's a big black horse, which neighs really loudly and starts thundering after me! I belt it up the hill and finally get away... I found this dream very scary.

I just wonder why I keep having dreams with black horses or bulls in them? Are these animals symbolic of anything, or is it the being chased part that's important? Please help, cos it's kind of freaking me out...
