Someone Attacking an Armadillo
You have a habit of being submissive during problems where acting more assertively could have resulted in a better ending.

Just because the problem is solved quicker doesn’t mean it was better for everyone involved.

Do not allow others to persuade you into making negative decisions even if it is easier to do.

It can be a negative thing not to take risks, however, but it is also bad to be necessarily reckless in your decision-making process. You need to take into account that you have a family you need to protect and making reckless choices can hurt them in many ways. You have strong parental instincts and a desire to protect your family from harm. This is a good thing. However, keep in mind that tragedies are bound to happen and cannot be avoided even if you try.

Feeding an armadillo in a dream can be representative of your desire to achieve your dreams no matter the cost to your health. While your determination can be a good thing just keep in mind your energy is important to preserve as burning out quickly is a possibility and the number one destroyer of dreams. You may feel the need to compare yourself to others but this is a bad thing as a comparison is the root of all heartache. Understand that we are all on our own life paths and travelling at different speeds. You want to achieve your goals because it seems like everyone else around you is doing the same thing.
Seeing a Group of Armadillos in a Line
Seeing a group of armadillos in a line can be very telling about what type of person you are. People can often take advantage of your trusting nature due to your sweet disposition. You need to keep a close eye on people around you because narrowing down your circle of friends can be a positive thing. You may find that there is less negative energy around you. This will also translate into your dream state as your dreams will be more positive as well. You do not need to explain to these individuals as to why you may have cut them off even if you feel the need to, it is sometimes just better to do so without warning so they can reflect on their own behavior. Moving on and moving forward is all the closure you need.
Seeing an Armadillo in a Cage
This is a sign you need to resolve this feeling of overwhelmingness, you cannot move forward without pulling out this weed from its root. Like the armadillo, you possess an instinct. You know where you need to go but you cannot move there just yet. Clearing your mind through meditation is a good way to start as well as decluttering your home. A messy home can be overwhelming to the point where it is affecting your mental state. Addressing this problem is just the beginning of clearing your mind so that you are feeling less overwhelmed. Preparing those around you by making more calculated and well thought out decisions is better for those around you. You cannot stop what may be unfolding but you can help by being as supportive as possible to the people you love the most.
Takeaway
To conclude, dreams about armadillos carry ominous symbolism reflecting the need to be more assertive but remain cautious as there are people around you who are going to be taking advantage of your vulnerability. Armadillos appearing in your dream state can indicate that you need to be more perceptive from now on. Analyze your surroundings as you move forward as clarity can lead you to a better path and avoid things you do want to do. You have great friends around but you need to remain close to them as pushing them away can result in self-isolation which severely impacts your health. Armadillos are presenting to you for a multitude of reasons. This is not the end and there is no reason for you to worry as all of these dreams can be considered probabilities not certainties. Take all of this into account as it will be helpful as you continue on in your journey.
