The platypus is an animal that has many unusual features and it was always interesting for naturalists. If you see a platypus in a dream it may mean the feeling of being lost and the fact that you do not know exactly who you are or who you want to be. The platypus predicts your problems with identity.
I dreamt that I saved a baby Platypus in a swamp. He was tied up by a rope and dying. My dog was about to get him but I grabbed him and swam through the swamp placing him in a safe place hoping he would survive. I saw a larger healthy Platypus in the water as well. The people who owned the property in my dream yelled at me for entering their swamp and I explained that I had to save a baby Platypus. They were obviously the ones that tied it up so they weren’t happy that I saved him. That was my whole dream.
