Owl
Owls represent wisdom, the ability to see through darkness and deception, and access to hidden knowledge. As nocturnal creatures, they symbolize the ability to navigate the unconscious mind. In Greek mythology, the owl was Athena's companion. However, in some cultures, owls are considered harbingers of death or bad news. The owl's ability to turn its head 270 degrees symbolizes seeing all perspectives.
Pregnancy
Pregnancy dreams represent something new developing in your life — a project, idea, relationship, or aspect of self that is gestating and growing. Both men and women have pregnancy dreams. The stage of pregnancy may indicate how far along this 'new thing' is in development. These dreams often appear when embarking on creative projects.
