27 Spiritual Meanings of Crows in Dreams (Not Hopeful)

Dreams are considered to be the manifestations of repressed thoughts and messages hiding in one’s subconscious mind. Dreaming of crows, which are complex and mysterious birds, might indicate deep meanings.

Dreaming of crows can have different meanings depending on the context, dreamer’s emotions, and the symbols appearing in the dream.

Crows represent one’s shadow self and emotions such as guilt, hate, and shame. Sometimes, seeing them in dreams may be a bad omen and an indication of misfortune.

However, dreaming of them may also represent transformation and psychic tools. It may be an indication of attaining higher wisdom, intelligence, and control over one’s conscience. Such dreams may also assist the dreamer in finding the solutions to the things holding him back.

The Symbolism and Spiritual Meaning of Dreams About Crows

Crows are historically associated with dark magic, psychic powers, and death.

Since the crows have connections with the spiritual world, a dream of them may convey a deep spiritual meaning.

Symbolically, a crow is considered a bad omen and a symbol of death; however, in the spiritual realm, death doesn’t mean the physical act of dying but only represents change, transformation, and new beginnings.

In alchemy, the crows symbolize the three phases of the transformation process i.e., death, decomposition, and rebirth. While undergoing this process, deep spiritual work is needed, and one achieves true knowledge of his inner self.

The black color of crows represents one’s shadow self. This shadow shows one’s real soul and the dark parts holding him back from the process of transformation. In the dream, the crow could encourage the dreamer to free himself from all such shackles.

The dead crows might recall the dreamer’s “bitter experience” of the recent past. However, they primarily signify that though it’s natural to grieve, the sufferings won’t persist forever. The blank space in life will be filled with new discoveries and opportunities.
