If you dream of white swans gliding serenely across still water, it's a vision of abundance and ease — life is moving in a favorable direction and beautiful experiences are unfolding around you.
If you see a black swan in the dream, particularly near clear water, it hints at pleasure pursued outside the bounds of what's proper — desire that carries a cost.
A dead swan signals the hollow feeling that follows excess — satisfaction has curdled into disillusionment, and restlessness is setting in.
If the swans are in flight, look forward with genuine optimism — something you've been hoping for is on the verge of becoming real.
