Catching a hawk is a dream where the brain attempts to grasp a force of rivalry or a sharp, predatory impulse that has been circling the edges of awareness. This capture brings a looming confrontation into a space where it can be dealt with. The dream rehearses the seizure of an aggressive dynamic that might otherwise remain unpredictable.
The dreamer finds that the act of catching is an attempt to stabilize a situation that is naturally volatile. By seizing the symbol of a watchful adversary, the mind seeks to diminish the distance between the self and a source of tension. Controlling such a sharp impulse carries the risk of losing the vitality the impulse carries. The dreamer finds stillness when a soaring conflict is finally brought down to earth.
The dreamer finds the meaning of the dream shifts when killing a hawk, as the impulse is no longer merely captured but is instead extinguished. This action moves the dream from a process of management to one of total elimination, which can result in the permanent removal of a necessary, albeit difficult, drive.

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.
