| | Definition: | | Seeing a sea horse in your dream means the power of your unconscious. It may also indicate a new perspective or different outlook in life. If the sea horse is invisible, then it suggests that there is an emotional issue that you are not acknowledging or recognizing. You may need to gain a new perspective or a different outlook in life. |
