Cockroach
I am going to explain the spiritual meaning of the cockroach. The cockroach is one of the most dreadful creatures because of its nature to inhabit in dirty places or things.
If you saw a cockroach scuttle around in real life or you dreamed of one then look no further as I will explain all. The cockroach is an amazing animal and when you start to understand that ever one of its aspects holds a meaning. Firstly, if we look at the shape of a cockroach it is oval.

Equally, the cockroach has been given the dates of 25 January and the 31st. This obviously is calculated to the number three, and if we double this it gives us our answer of six, which is an inferior number.
