Cymbal
A cymbal's loud, ringing clash often touches a moment that cuts through everything — bright and jarring at once, marking an ending. The dream may ask what is sounding its final note in your life, where sunlight comes to you through gloom, and what passing of someone or something old you're being asked to register.
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 cymbal, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
Hearing a cymbal in your dreams, foretells the death of a very aged person of your acquaintance. The sun will shine, but you will see it darkly because of gloom.
