Cleverness, group memory, and what a smart watcher in your life is noticing.

The base reading of Crow
A crow in a dream is the dictionary's image of clever observation. Crows in waking life are famous for remembering faces; in dreams they often stand for the parts of your life that remember things about you that you have forgotten or hoped were forgotten.
A crow alone is observation. A murder of crows is the dream's image of a community remembering something together — sometimes a reputation, sometimes a wound, sometimes a debt of recognition that has not been paid.
Where you often see it. A crow on a fence. A pair of crows watching from a tree. The dream uses the crow for cleverness, group memory, and what a smart watcher in your life is noticing.
What it is not. A crow is not always omen. The dictionary often reads it as the dreamer's most intelligent observer.
Related in the dictionary. Read crow with raven (the heavier cousin), magpie, and any scene of dark-feathered intelligence.
