Seals live both on land and in the water, so the dream implies that you are flexible depending on the situation you find yourself in.

On the other hand, the dream might be telling you to make more of an effort to adjust to new conditions if you tend to shy away from change. 

If you saw a seal that was broken on a fridge or a bottle for instance, perhaps you aren’t as protected as you thought you were. Try to be more vigilant as there is something or someone trying to penetrate the barriers you have put up for yourself. 

If the seal was perfectly intact, maybe you are being very careful lately to ensure nothing will harm the bubble you have created for yourself. Are you being overly cautious? 

A seal can be used to make a document official so maybe you have made a formal commitment to someone lately- consider who else was in the dream with you for additional meaning. 

Or perhaps you have signed on the dotted line and promised to do something for a number of years. Have you bought a house or a new car for example?

If you were sealing a surface with a substance like varnish, this represents a desire for something to stay as it is. You want to preserve a moment if you are loving life right now or because you know that your current circumstances won’t be forever. 

To seal up a package or an envelope could be because you want to make contact with someone. Try to remember who the letter or box was addressed to and this will help you identify who you need to reach out to.

The dream could be a pun for ‘seal of approval’- have you been accepted into a partner’s family lately or a new team at work? Perhaps you are feeling happy that people are welcoming you into the fold. 

On the other hand, you may want someone to look upon you favourably but they are showing no signs of admiration.  

Perhaps this will take more time or maybe they will never see you this way and it’s wise to move on and seek out someone who will show you some encouragement. 

If you were breaking the seal on something in your dream, it’s possible you are now working to a deadline. You have put something in motion and now you need to make the most of the opportunity. The dream could be telling you not to waste this time or chance just because you feel a bit of pressure to get it done.

A cute or cuddly panda could be a representation of someone in your life you would describe this way. Why are you dreaming about them? Do they need your help? Consider the phrase ‘pandering’- perhaps you want someone to indulge or gratify your every whim. This attitude might be having a negative effect on your relationships so be wary of what you are asking of the people you care about. In Eastern culture, Pandas are thought to be signs of good luck- so seeing one might foretell some positive times head. Pandas are known to have strong personal boundaries- so the dream could be telling you not to let others walk all over you and disrespect your boundaries...
