An analogy of life
Wednesday, December 9th, 2009QUESTION: Masters, I had a dream last night that I feel has an underlying message, but I don’t know what it is. I live in a rural area and have some hens. My dream was about something trying to get my hens. I ran outside and found a small dead raccoon. I remember looking up and seeing an electrical line and on it sat (left to right) a white dove, a white snow owl, a white hawk with dark markings on its wings, and another white dove. They were looking down, watching me. I didn’t see any hens. I saw “something” had a hold of another animal and I thought it was one of my hens. I ran toward it and just as I got to it, it turned around. It was a red fox and it had caught another raccoon. I stopped in my tracks because it shocked me to see a red fox! I knew it meant me no harm and was “taking care” of the raccoons. At this point I woke up. Any interpretation you can give is greatly appreciated! ~Melissa, USA
ANSWER: Dreams often try to assist you with your awareness and lessons in life. Here your higher self was using familiar objects to let you sense what is going on all around you. Hens represent your life-blood, both food and produce. Raccoons, with their masks, represent the world trying to steal from the sleepy and unwary. They come under the cover of night, or when you are not looking, to help themselves to your livelihood.
Above all, these are your guides who can help you to see and plan for preventing the thefts. White is the color of protection and the light of spiritual connection. The birds were used because most people think of angels/guides as having wings. Most are pure white and assist you in learning about your non-physical aspects or the essence of your soul. The Hawk, with its dark earthy markings, is there to give you help with the physical world and to explain the connection between the physical and the non-physical.
The fox represents the physical help that is available to you to see the root cause of your life-lessons, and how you may not have seen what it is you need to do. These are the healers and lightworkers of the world who are very much in contact with Source. All of this came to you to help you awaken to all the possibilities for understanding your life-lessons that are currently troubling you.
