Dreaming of a Hawk

hawk, bird of prey, eagle · mixed

A hawk points to schemers watching you, but also to victory if you drive it off or shoot it.

What happens in the dream

  • A dead hawk: your enemies will be defeated
  • A very large hawk: a new venture; if it swoops on its prey, it will succeed
  • You shoot at a hawk: a contest with enemies that you'll likely win after many struggles
  • You scare a hawk away from your poultry before it does harm: enemies are watching for your mistakes, but diligence brings success
  • You see a hawk: scheming people will try to cheat you
  • Small birds drive the hawk away: difficulties, possibly failure

How you felt

  • Vigilance: the dream often reflects a sense of being watched
  • Ambition: you may have a precise target in sight

Ask yourself

  • Who is watching me, or whom am I watching?
  • What opportunity am I waiting to seize?
