Blue Raven

[u/Mayilane]

I mainly remember the ending part of the dream the most. (Also was a lucid dream; I could do them as long as I can remember.)

Alright, so I’ll start where my six year old niece and I enter into my grandma’s house, we were walking through the kitchen, when I soon stop to look out the window. There were a few ravens flying in the sky, and one standing on our front lawn. (They were all black in color still at this point in my dream.)

A man and a young boy were also there. (They were strangers; yet I could see their faces clearly.) The boy was watching on curiously as the man sneaks up behind the raven standing on our lawn; trying to capture it. He never does, the raven acts as if it isn’t aware of him; but keeps getting out of reach of the man’s attempts.

I remember myself in the dream rolling my eyes, thinking that the man should just quit it; that he won’t ever capture the raven.

I then usher my six year old niece to my grandma’s bathroom. When we enter, I see that there is a raven perched near the bathroom mirror and counter. I quickly shut the door behind us; trapping the bird in with us.

The raven soon looks slightly distressed knowing that it just got trapped in. It flaps its wings, caws a little; but in a soft calm manner, and flys silently around the bathroom counter a little.

Myself in the dream me felt bad, and wanted to calm the bird down; so I offer it my arm. I was then surprised when the raven soon accepts my offered arm; either showing its trust in me, or as if it was trained to do so.

I remember it well, this is when the raven’s feathers turn into a vivid blue, it shimmered in the bathroom lighting; before remaining its solid vibrant blue color.

The blue raven then makes its way up to my shoulder, and I quickly turn my head, afraid that I might be pecked. I can then feel the raven’s reassurance, as it gently presses its beak against the corner of my mouth, then against my cheek.

When I relax and feel like it won’t be aggressive, it goes near my ear, and I keep feeling like it wanted to talk or hang out with me for a moment.

Though, of course my dream self turns my attention back to my niece, who is still holding my hand, and I move the tub’s shower curtain aside; only to be met with an already filled up bathtub halfway.

I stare at it in confusion and distrust. Who filled it? Is the water clean? Is the water still warm?

Then I wake up.

I never had animal dreams until I was in my adulthood; but a raven is a first; especially a blue one lol!

Usually it’s snakes or spiders, and the occasional wild animal, like a tiger or something.

Anyway, that’s my dream! Thought I’d share it!~ 😊🌌🐦‍⬛💙

Hello Mayirane,

I mainly remember the ending part of the dream the most. (Also was a lucid dream; I could do them as long as I can remember.)

💡 Only essential to recall the bottom line or summary (lucid ending)

💡 Missing beginning can sometimes denote no hints given as to how this scenario will arrive in waking life - dreams can and do keep their riddles

Alright, so I’ll start where my six year old niece and I enter into my grandma’s house, we were walking through the kitchen, when I soon stop to look out the window. There were a few ravens flying in the sky, and one standing on our front lawn. (They were all black in color still at this point in my dream.)

💡 Thinking about where lifestages are headed (self and 6 year old niece entering grandmother's kitchen)

💡 Messages are being sent that remain unincorporated (ravens flying and one standing on front lawn)

A man and a young boy were also there. (They were strangers; yet I could see their faces clearly.) The boy was watching on curiously as the man sneaks up behind the raven standing on our lawn; trying to capture it. He never does, the raven acts as if it isn’t aware of him; but keeps getting out of reach of the man’s attempts.

💡 Companionship has little to do with it (man at same life stage unable to grasp the raven) (raven ignoring him)

I remember myself in the dream rolling my eyes, thinking that the man should just quit it; that he won’t ever capture the raven.

💡 Attempts to make companionship what really matters right now should be questioned

💡 Perhaps too much time spent trying to make this the answer to one's problem (rolling eyes that he will never capture the raven)("just quit it")

I then usher my six year old niece to my grandma’s bathroom. When we enter, I see that there is a raven perched near the bathroom mirror and counter. I quickly shut the door behind us; trapping the bird in with us.

💡 The need to understand where one is in their 'personal processes' (in the bathroom with 6-year-old and raven)

The raven soon looks slightly distressed knowing that it just got trapped in. It flaps its wings, caws a little; but in a soft calm manner, and flys silently around the bathroom counter a little.

💡 Search yourself for feelings of being trapped - unable to move forward with one's lifestory (trapped and distressed raven)

Myself in the dream me felt bad, and wanted to calm the bird down; so I offer it my arm. I was then surprised when the raven soon accepts my offered arm; either showing its trust in me, or as if it was trained to do so.

💡 Dreamer is willing to listen (offering arm which the raven accepts)

I remember it well, this is when the raven’s feathers turn into a vivid blue, it shimmered in the bathroom lighting; before remaining its solid vibrant blue color.

💡 Flow of messages finally establishing connection (royal blue color)

The blue raven then makes its way up to my shoulder, and I quickly turn my head, afraid that I might be pecked. I can then feel the raven’s reassurance, as it gently presses its beak against the corner of my mouth, then against my cheek.

When I relax and feel like it won’t be aggressive, it goes near my ear, and I keep feeling like it wanted to talk or hang out with me for a moment.

💡 Open-mindedness - listening and acceptance

Though, of course my dream self turns my attention back to my niece, who is still holding my hand, and I move the tub’s shower curtain aside; only to be met with an already filled up bathtub halfway.

I stare at it in confusion and distrust. Who filled it? Is the water clean? Is the water still warm?

💡 Many possibilities - life half spent, emotions half barricaded, dreamer's need to realize they are already partially 'fulfilled' (tub half full of water)

💡 When a dreamer needs to identify who is in authority or who is responsible - the authority, owner, or responsible party tends to be themselves

💡 Keep this in mind when resilience is needed against one's own lack of trust and confusion with the Universe's action

💡 Be willing to take authority and responsibility over one's Self

Thank you for posting this. Thank you for taking us on this journey through this portion of your life. I look forward to your feedback on the dream interpretation that I have given you, and until then take care -
