What does it mean if you see a beetle in your dream?

The meaning of this dream lies in the emotional tone of the dream. It also would be important to know what the beetle is doing and where, with whom, etc. For example, a beetle zooming along a mountain road might be a pun referring to the VW Beetle (similar to an old television commercial.) In contrast, a beetle playing the guitar might be about Paul McCartney or Ringo Starr. A beetle constantly pinching the dreamer's toe could represent a small problem that is "bugging" the dreamer.
