Cricket
A cricket's lone chirp in the dark often touches melancholy and word arriving from far away — a small sound carrying grief. The dream may ask what sorrowful news you're half-expecting, where you're struggling against scarcity, and what quiet, persistent unease is keeping you company in the night.
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 cricket, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To hear a cricket in one's dream, indicates melancholy news, and perhaps the death of some distant friend.
To see them, indicates hard struggles with poverty.
