Catching a fairy in a dream is the brain’s way of processing an encounter with something that feels too fragile or improbable to hold. This mental movement occurs when the mind attempts to grasp an idea, a feeling, or a solution that lacks a solid foundation in the waking world. The act of pursuit serves to test the stability of an intuition or a sudden hope that has surfaced during the night.
The dreamer may find that the effort to secure this elusive figure is part of a rehearsal for managing things that are difficult to pin down or define. This movement shows where a wish meets a reality that cannot be grasped. There is a risk that the pursuit is directed toward an illusion that cannot be sustained once the light of day arrives. Disappointment arrives if the thing being chased vanishes upon contact. The dream leaves room for the recognition that some things are best experienced without the need for capture.

Owen SterlingInterpreter interprets your dreams
Many people believe a frightening dream announces something, when more often the brain was simply sorting the days just before it. During the night the mind files what was carried over from recent hours, and what gets filed loudest is what was felt most. A rough night leaves a residue by morning that fades with daylight. Nothing was sent. The sleeper was working, and the work is done.
