Pigeons (especially pigeons of the "eunuchs" breed) have long been considered a
symbol of peace and purity. Even in the Bible, this bird is a symbol of the Holy Spirit. And the dove in a dream is news, and, as it seems to us, it is necessarily auspicious and not bringing the dreamer anything bad. As often happens, the results often do not coincide with our expectations, and where, at first, a good outcome is seen, trouble awaits us. In order to understand the situation in as much detail as possible, it is necessary to leaf through
the dream books offered on the modern
market and carefully read all the interpretations that are associated with this small bird.
Why do I dream of a dove according to Freud?
Sigmund Freud, as in most interpretations of dreams, is categorical and biased in interpreting visions either from an “intimate” position or from a position of problem solving. His belief in this also touched the dove.
The poor bird in a dream turns out to be the symbolic meaning of sexual intercourse with the person she likes, which the dreamer certainly wants to enter. If he does this or tries to do it, then, most likely, communication with the “object of desire” will end there. The following is advice in which Dr. Freud asks the dreamer to be patient and take a closer look at the circumstances of the relationship, but this does not mean at all that the passion does not like such a relationship. It is possible that it is they who suit her.
Why do you dream of a dove according to Miller?
Gustavus Miller, the collector of traditional symbolism, who managed to find the most diverse interpretations of dreams in his entire life, interprets the image of a dove from a different perspective:
- if a pigeon cooing is heard in a dream, such a dream promises family well-being and a cozy atmosphere, and for a girl - a quick marriage and a long happy family life;
- hunting for pigeons (both observing this atrocity and the direct participation of the dreamer in it) means the cruel essence of the sleeping man, covered in a mask of morality. Moreover, such cruelty is often manifested in cases relating to business. Such a dream also warns the dreamer from being carried away by lustful ideas and base deeds;
- flying doves mean either news from friends from far away, or that the dreamer will soon become a participant in some kind of misunderstanding;
- but the voice of a lonely dove or dead birds do not promise anything positive. Their appearance in a dream means quick misfortunes and painful thoughts.
What is the dove dreaming of according to the Rodnover?Rodnovers, as true admirers of the ancient Slavic culture, managed to preserve and convey to us the ancient sacred meanings of symbols. And the dove in them is only a positive creature and, one might say, sublime.
For example, one dove means that the Goddess is nearby, and she looks after the dreamer; flock of birds - happiness and prosperity. If you catch a pigeon in a dream, then in reality there will certainly be a way to get an impressive amount of money, and to catch it - for a fast wedding.
But in search of an answer to the question "why dove dream" one can find not only positive answers: flying pigeons promise death, killing a bird - a quarrel with a friend, and a feathered bird - to a loss.
