Anteater dream meaning is explained below using 5 different sources. Each interpretation is shown with its source.
Interpretation 1 — Ariadne Green
Unlike the diligent ant, the anteater is an animal that may come to destroy what you have built.
It is not necessarily an adversary, because it may be taking away what you were working on so that you can pursue your true or greater purpose.
The anteater may be saying that you need not work so hard on fruitless projects.

Interpretation 2 — Dr. Mıchael Lennox
The consciousness of the anteater is to consume and live off of very tiny pieces of sustenance. Ants relate to anxiety, and therefore the anteater is that which feeds off of pervasive anxious thoughts.
A dream with an anteater is about perpetuating such states.
