Since ancient times, pigeons are considered a symbol of peace, kindness and prosperity. Once upon a time, at the time of the pigeon mail, these cute birds were worth its weight in gold, and even today they are held in high esteem by mankind. A couple of pigeons are released into the sky at a wedding ceremony, this rite symbolizes a peaceful married life and promises a quick addition to the family. Perhaps that’s why we treat pigeons with trepidation and sympathy, which can often be found on city streets.
But what if pigeons appear in our dreams? What do these dreams promise? How can they be interpreted? In other words, why doves dream?
It's no secret that any dream is an encrypted message of our unconscious. Many dreams carry information about our desires, fears and fears. Some are able to warn of imminent danger or prompt an answer to a question that torments a person in real life. So which of these options can be attributed a dream in which a person sees pigeons?
Dream researchers agree that the dove is one of the most favorable characters. Depending on what exactly happens in a dream, the symbolism changes. By and large, any dream in which you see a healthy dove carries positive information. If you see several pigeons or a whole flock and hear their cooing, you can be calm: harmony, joy and understanding will reign in your family soon.
This is in general, and now let's talk about the details. So, why do you dream about the depths?
If you see flying pigeons, then in life you should be a little persistent, not afraid of various misunderstandings and not give in to difficulties - in the end, everything will turn out well. In addition, the dream in which you see flying doves can symbolize the news from a distant friend.
The “pigeon” dream carries a special message to unmarried girls and women. Why do pigeons dream of unmarried ladies? To a quick offer of a hand and heart, and the union will certainly be strong and happy. For women, pigeons in a dream can also symbolize an early pregnancy.
It is interesting that Freud, who believed that any dream carries hidden information about intimate desires, interpreted the symbolic image of a dove in this way: in your life there is a strong friendship, platonic relations are quite suitable for your partner. Despite the fact that you would like to accelerate the dynamics of relations, you should not rush, as this can only repel the object of your attention.
And now about the fly in the ointment. We have already figured out why pigeons dream of peace, joy, marriage, replenishment of the family, etc. However, there is one caveat: all this is true only if the pigeons that you see in a dream are alive and well and are not attacked by humans.
If in a dream you shoot pigeons for your own fun, then you should reconsider your attitude to life: such a dream hints at the excessive cruelty of your nature. It can also serve as a warning: do not indulge vile desires and passions. If you dream of a dead dove or a sick lonely dove, then such a dream symbolizes misfortune.
Interestingly, the same can be said of dreams in which you see dead or mutilated ducklings. If you ask the dream researchers what the ducklings dream of, they will respond with great confidence that this is a good sign that they symbolize pleasant changes and gifts of fate. But only if the ducklings are alive and well. Otherwise, it is worth preparing for future failures and losses.
If in a dream you kill a duck, but keep the ducklings alive, then such a dream symbolizes the following: you have done (or will) do a great evil in life, but there is a chance to correct it.
Be mindful of your dreams. And then you will understand exactly what doves dream of.
