Dove Dream Meaning

Dreaming of a dove is usually a symbol of peace and hope, especially after a hard time has passed. Like the breath of relief that comes when a war ends or a storm passes, this bird brings that same feeling to mind, so the dream keeps returning when your mind is looking for a little peace. Much of the meaning depends on the dove's color and what it was doing.

• A white dove

  It is usually a symbol of peace of mind, and it expresses a wish to settle a quarrel or repair a relationship.

• A dove flying away

  This captures the feeling of one chapter of life ending and something new beginning, especially if the dove flies from your hand or out of your home.

• A wounded or caged dove

  The freedom of your mind is stuck somewhere. Perhaps you are in a situation where there is no room to breathe freely.

• A pair of doves

  This speaks of deep understanding in a relationship and a longing to be together.

• A dove building a nest

  This brings out the need for stability at home that you carry inside.

A dove dream brings a gentle message: peace returns even after a storm, and you only need to wait for it with a little patience.
