Everything working out for the best, happy endings, or a perfect
relationship.
Example: A teenager dreamed of being attacked by swans. In real life
they were very worried about poor performance at school. The attacking
swans reflected their ideal view of themselves having perfect grades
being threatened by the possibility of getting poor grades.
Toucans
To dream of a toucan represents a need to be heard. The noticability
of expression. You or someone else is being very vocal about something
they want noticed. There may be beliefs or concerns that you or
someone else feels are important for others to pay attention to.
Example: A young
woman dreamed of being turned into a toucan. In waking life her boss
instructed her to get out into the city and speak to people to build
business contacts.
Turkeys
To dream of a turkey represents feelings about yourself or someone
else that is aware of something ridiculous happening to them. Self-awareness
of looking ridiculous or having to put up with a ridiculous situation.
Negatively,
dreaming of a turkey may reflect feeling about yourself or someone
else looking foolish. You or someone else may have embarrassed themselves,
feel humiliated, or realizes they were irresponsible. An embarrassing
impotent aspect of your life.
To dream of
being chased by a turkey represents your attempts to avoid looking
foolish or embarrassing yourself. It may also reflect your attempts
to avoid people you think are foolish.
To dream of
eating turkey represents situations that vindicate you or recapture
lost pride. Not feeling like a loser anymore. Reestablishing dignity
or feelings of being a respectable normal person. A ridiculous situation
has ended. Re-establishing relationships after spending too much
time apart.
Example: A woman
dreamed of raising enormous turkeys. In waking life she was told by
her doctors that she couldn't have a normal child birth because her
pelvis was too small. She required a c-section. The enormous turkey
being raised may have reflected her feelings about her herself expecting
a unconventional child birth that made her feel like a ridiculous
loser when discussing it with friends and family.
Vultures
To dream of a vulture represents benefiting from others failures or
mistakes. Exploiting someone else failures. Feeling good watching
someone else failing. Feeling that someone is watching your every
move waiting for you to make a single mistake. A total lack of conscience,
remorse, or respect for someone who made a mistake. Feeling that someone
in your life is a "vulture."
Negatively, a
vulture may reflect you or someone else that is hoping for others
to fail. Encouraging failure because it will benefit you. Enjoying
waiting to exploit someone else's loss. Taunting people about how
you will enjoy benefiting from their loss. No self-respect when it
comes to getting to exploit someone else's failure. An opportunistic
attitude with low morals or respect.
Alternatively,
vultures may reflect feelings about greedy people who are opportunistic
about business opportunities that depend on you making a mistake.
Woodpecker
To dream of a woodpecker represents diligence, applying yourself,
or trying your hardest. Giving something your best shot.
