Crane
Cranes in flight often touch the turning of seasons and the long journeys of those we wait on — northward gloom, southward reunion. The dream may ask which way your prospects feel headed, whether you're bracing for disappointment or anticipating a joyful meeting, and what absent connection is on the wing toward you.
A live archive of what the world is dreaming tonight: which symbols are rising, the collective mood, and where the dreams are coming from. Free, always.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for crane, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To dream of seeing a flight of cranes tending northward, indicates gloomy prospects for business. To a woman, it is significant of disappointment; but to see them flying southward, prognosticates a joyful meeting of absent friends, and that lovers will remain faithful.
To see them fly to the ground, events of unusual moment are at hand.
