that is a strange dream but perhaps it does have some sort of meaning xx

*poke* sorry, couldn't resist Bodie's belly button in your icon.

The dream was one of those things that just got me thinking... wondering if it really is trying to tell me to loosen up and let go a bit. *g*

I'd go with your subconscious realization that the chickens are in league with the penguins and are, in fact, our evil overlords.

Well, that or the cheese.

Oh definitely the penguins. And that sort of megalomania knows no bounds. I'd say I got off pretty lightly really - lucky I realised this now, and not after I got the coop built.

I think the chickens were your ideas/plans/hopes, and you have been caring for them and carrying them with you. You wanted to expand their potential, but fear other people claiming them for their own.

BUT I have a ridiculous book of 10,000 dreams interpreted-- lets see what it says.

If you see a cage full of birds, you will be the happy possessor of immense wealth and many beautiful and charming children.

OTOH- to hear the cackling of hens denotes an unexpected death in your neighborhood. Sickness will cause poverty.

so.. a lot of cackling hens in a cage will mean you'll be rich AND poor....

Seeing a brood of chickens denotes worry from many cares, some of which will prove to your profit.

Seeing fowls denotes temporary worry or illness. For a woman to dream of fowls indicates a short illness or disagreement with friends.

To dream of hens denotes pleasant family reunions with added members.

So, you'll have a nice family visit, with extra people, and then quarrel with them?

If by 'traveller' you mean something like 'gypsy' (not PC but this is an old book) then To dream of trading with a gypsy you will lose money in speculation- this dream denotes that material pleasures are the biggest items in your life.

Do you know, I like your interpretation far better than anything your book said.
Yes, by "traveller" I meant "gypsy" - perhaps I should get out of the stock market? It's called a bull or bear market, never heard mention of chickens there though. *g*

Maybe a chicken is someone afraid to play the market!

Hee - I think I wonder what kind of houses you've been mortgaging for lately... *vbg*

I think it's a combination of that, and the chicken house I saw at City Farmers on Saturday when I was buying more litter - plus the flyer that I brought home from the Ekka from a guy who builds hen houses.
But I like entropy_house's interpretation, above.

Chickens! I like that dream - I wouldn't have let them take my chickens away either.

Aint no-one takes my chickens!
