Interpretation 2 — Ibn Seerin

(Hoof) Seeing a giraffe without a necessary reason in a dream has a negative connotation. In fact, it may mean an illness or business losses. On the other hand, a giraffe in a dream could represent a beautiful woman, or learning astonishing news coming from a foreign land, or hearing comforting news coming from a close friend, a wife or a child.

A giraffe in a dream also represents a wife who is keen to protect her married life or who stands behind her husband under all circumstances.

Interpretation 3 — Dr. Mıchael Lennox

The neck of the giraffe is one of nature’s quirkiest and most elegant expressions. By virtue of its height, the giraffe can graze where no other animal can.

Herein lies its medicine:

When the giraffe appears in a dream, you are being given access to higher places to find sustenance and nurturing. You are gaining a higher vantage point as well.
