An interpretation of owl dreams
This interpretation is from ""The Dream Interpretation Dictionary: Symbols, Signs, and Meanings" and is provided by J.M. DeBord aka "RadOwl". He is the author of several acclaimed books about dreaming, the host of The Dreams That Shape Us podcast, and is a moderator of r/Dreams, one of the largest dream sharing communities on the internet. The “wise owl” is a popular image, and in dreams it can represent you or an aspect of yourself connected with knowledge and learning. The owl’s presence can be a way of saying, “This dream is related to learning something or gaining knowledge.” Or you are trying to think deeply about a situation. You’re pondering, pensive. It can symbolize the feeling of being watched from the shadows. However, the symbolism can go much deeper. Unlike most birds, owls are nocturnal. That their night vision is unmatched creates a strong association with intuition and hunch. They connect with the parts of yourself that are in the dark of the unconscious mind. They act as intermediaries to help you tap into your instinctive wisdom, especially in regard to protecting and rearing children and trusting your intuition. They help you see what is hidden—especially what’s hidden about yourself. In this sense, owls are like crows. They help bring your hidden potential to the awareness of the conscious mind. They initiate you into the mysteries of life and death. See: Crowds The owl can symbolize something within you that helps you find your way when you’re not sure where you’re going, that is stealthy and aware, that can navigate dark environments without much information or guidance. A white owl is known to be a good omen in dreams. It can mean that the time is right to move ahead with something you’ve been planning or thinking about. You have the internal resources you need.
