The Symbols Thread: Let's Trace our POTC Symbols

This is what it means when you dream of crabs

To see a crab in your dream, signifies you perseverance and tenacity. On an extreme note, you maybe be too clingy and dependant and hanging on to a hopeless endeavor. Crabs are also symbolic of your irritable personality.

Does it ever show crabs being caught or crabs being eaten? I think if they really are a strong motif, they'll be in it even more, but I like where everyone's going with it.

Omg u guys are soooo on to something!!!

Interesting. Are there any other things/objects whose presence in the movies seem strange? Maybe they mean something according to a dream dictionary.

Lets hold on to the crab and look for other symbols.

Why would the writers choose crabs, I mean there has to be a reason.

*grins* dont you guys feel soooo smart? i know i do 😄 😄 😄 😄

okay guys im going to bed i have to catch a flight at 7 tomorrow morning in order to see my Dad for thanksgiving so i'll talk to yall later and catch up on the crab thing in the morning... later! keep searchin for crabbystuff

Well somewhere i read that if u hold on to the end of the credits u will see the fate of one of the characters....

well at the end of the credits we see the DOG become like the cannibals GOD right? Well theoretically speaking if the DOG is suppose to represent JACK....do u think JACK CAN BECOME IMORTAL by the end of AWE?

the writers dont do it for the hell of it. Theres gotta be a reason.

Ok last post about crabs I promise I though this was also interesting.

Crab
Interpretation: A dream about crabs means you feel fulfilled emotionally and physically. If a crab pinches you in a dream, your partner in a love relationship is being "clingy."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Crab (crabs)
Interpretation: At first glance a crab seems to be a very negative dream symbol. It could represent a "crabby" or unpleasant personality. The claws could be symbolic of a clinging and hurtful person, or a side of your own personality. There may be too much dependence, clinging and forcefulness in your life. The crab may also symbolize your inability to effectively move forward and address your own difficulties. (Remember the crab often moves sideways or backwards.) Some folklore interpretations say that the crab is an omen of poor health. However, there is a more positive interpretation for the crab in your dream. In some areas of metaphysics, the crab is a representative of the sea and the sky. It represents physical nourishment which can be obtained from the sea and also intellectual nourishment. As with all water dwelling animals, the crab could also represent something in the unconscious and the emotions.
