I dreamed of two birds on wing, only they were both gravely injured. One carried the other in it’s beak, hobbling, as it were, to me, laying it’s mate at my feet. I began to stroke the feathers of both, caressing with kind love each feather that was left to them. I could see, where the flesh had been laid bare, blood raised to the surface, clotting and forming bruises. I imagined what had happened, that someone cruel had stomped on them, harshly, heavy, to maim or kill them. Their eyes looked up at me in hope and pain. As I stroked them, they began to heal. Then, they were young calves, being clothed in one of my own dresses. I became upset with the woman who dressed them, for they soiled my clothing with feces. She paid me no attention. Then, birds again, at my feet, and I, stroking them with love and caring. And then, I awoke. To think, always, of these birds, injured, both. Healed by my hands. And, I, left to wonder. What does it mean?

Without meeting you I sense a person who cares, who tries to heal the broken. For you to heal both yourself and other’s you must first understand the principles of death the broken and of sorrow. In essence you have been shown these feelings in your dreams, even though you have been through them in life it is a rare gift to understand these emotions fully and use the energies applied from them correctly. Sometimes we forget the things we have always known, dream and remember. And as for your clothes on animals “many people dress up their feelings and allow the truth to rot!” Be yourself always and never allow other’s to de-rail you! Well that’s what I see anyway but in the end its up to you to decide! Peace!!!…:))
