Dead Lark in dreams
A bird that climbs to sing — the part of the day where hope rises before the work begins.
How dead changes the reading
Dead in the dream means the symbol's energy is no longer in active circulation in your life. The reading is not necessarily grim — most often it is the dream noting that something you had been carrying has run its full course and you can stop carrying it.
The base reading of Lark
A lark in a dream usually marks the early hour of something, the moment before effort. It is the dream's version of an uncomplicated rising — energy that has not yet been spent on the day. A lark singing overhead is the dream saying that the mood that opens you is the mood worth listening to. A silent lark, or one falling out of the sky, is the dream noting that the part of you that used to lift first thing in the morning has stopped doing so, and asking what put it down.
