Dreaming of an Organ
organ, church organ, harmonium, keyboard · mixed, often dark
The organ is a split omen: joy and lasting friendship on one side, mourning and separation on the other.
What happens in the dream
- Hearing an organ peal out grand anthems, or simply the sound of an organ: joy, lasting friendships and solid fortune
- Playing harmonious music on an organ: worldly comfort and social standing
- Hearing a lively tune on a street organ: you'll soon attend a funeral
- Seeing an organ in a church: a painful family separation, perhaps a death
- Hearing the solemn music of a church organ: a death touching a young person close to you
- Hearing mournful singing with organ accompaniment: a wearisome task ahead, and possible loss of friends or position
How you felt
- Reverence: the dream often reflects a need for solemnity or something spiritual
- Melancholy: it may mirror grief over a loss, past or feared
Ask yourself
- What moves me deeply right now?
- Is there a loss or parting I haven't yet come to terms with?
