General meaning

The rabbit is one of the most universal symbols of luck and fertility in world culture. In China the rabbit is the symbol of the lunar year, embodying longevity and good fortune. In the Celtic tradition the hare was a sacred animal connected with the moon and the goddess Eostre (whose name gave rise to the word ‘Easter’). In Japan the white rabbit lives on the moon and pounds rice cakes — a symbol of abundance.

In dreams the rabbit often appears as a harbinger of luck and beneficial change. Its restless energy and capacity for rapid multiplication make it a symbol of growth, new beginnings, and the ability to take advantage of opening opportunities. A rabbit in a dream reminds you: luck does not wait — it must be caught.
