Complete Dictionary of Dreams

by Dr. Mıchael Lennox
A creature of water, the lobster relates to the depths of the unconscious mind. Lobsters continually grow throughout their lifespan and can regenerate a lost limb. In this way, the power of the lobster as a totem connects to spiritual regeneration and the ability to continue growing in wisdom as a result of continual self-exploration. When the lobster appears in a dream, you are being asked to look at things on a very deep level; be willing to explore that which is hovering just below the surface of your unconscious.

Islamic Dream Interpretation

by Ibn Seerin
In a dream, a lobster represents a strong and a perfidious person who is untouchable, difficult to deal with and who is difficult to associate with, or who requires delicate handling. Eating lobster meat in a dream represents earnings from a distant land. Eating his meat also may mean earning unlawful money.
