Sleeping Pigeon in dreams
City life — what becomes ordinary, what you stop noticing.
How sleeping changes the reading
The base reading of Pigeon
A pigeon in a dream is the dictionary's image of urban ordinariness. The pigeon is the bird that survives by being unremarkable; in dreams it is the part of your life that has become so familiar you no longer see it.
This is sometimes a gentle image — you have built a daily life that runs without your attention. Sometimes it is a prompt — the dream is asking you to actually look at something you have stopped looking at.
Where you often see it. A pigeon on a city windowsill. A flock of pigeons in a square. The dream uses the pigeon for city life — what becomes ordinary, what you stop noticing.
What it is not. A pigeon is not always banal. The dictionary often reads it as the dreamer's unnoticed daily company.
Related in the dictionary. Read pigeon with crow, sparrow, and any scene of city-domestic life.
