To dream that you are changing into the form of an animal indicates that you are becoming less civilized, less restrained and becoming more free and instinctive. You may be expressing your newfound freedom/independence and experiencing a lack of boundaries. Alternatively, taking the form of an animal suggests that your primal desires and/or repressed sexual urges are coming to the surface and needing to be satisfied. Consider also the animal that your turn into.
To dream that you are an apprentice suggests that you will have to prove yourself in order to gain acceptance from your colleagues.
To dream that you live in a senior home (but you don’t really live in one in real life) means that you are becoming too dependent on others. You need to take responsibility and control of your own life.
