Tadpoles

Tadpole, Polliwogs, Frogspawn

Every frog starts out as a tadpole, a wriggling little swimmer with a tail and no legs, and only after weeks or months does it climb out onto land. Tadpole dreams often have to do with early stages: ideas, plans or relationships that are still taking shape and don't yet look like what they'll become. Their shape, all head and tail, gives them a funny, unfinished look, and the dream may ask you to be patient with something that's still awkward. A pond thick with them can mean you've started more things than you can see through.
