Efua NyansaCatching a crow means you are trying to grasp a sorrow that is already in motion. When we reach out to seize what is meant to pass, we often find ourselves binding our own hands to a grief that should have been let go.
This dream shows how you reach for a departing thing, pulling the sting of loss into the very center of your home instead of letting it fly. You find yourself, child, standing in a courtyard where the light has gone thin and the wind has died. The trouble is that what is caught cannot be easily set down once the hands have closed. Peace comes to the family when the things that must leave are allowed to depart. May your hands be light and your heart be open to the coming stillness.
Collecting crows means you are gathering many small sorrows into one place. This act of bringing various losses together makes the sense of separation feel more crowded and harder to escape.
To be holding a crow is to find that the grief has already taken root in your hands. This stillness shows that the thing which was meant to fly has become a weight you must carry.
For its more general meaning: Dream about a crow
Efua NyansaInterpreter interprets your dreams
Sit down first, child. The dream is not going anywhere. The elders used to say that a person is never read alone. Whoever stood beside you in the dream matters as much as what you saw, and the path behind you matters as much as the one ahead. Look, a dream with your people in it has already done half its work. May the name you were given keep you well.
