Shooting deer is a dream that works through the sudden breaking of a calm or fluid state. This process serves to test the dreamer’s reaction to an abrupt termination of a cycle that was previously moving in its own rhythm.
The pursuit of a target in such a dream indicates an attempt to grasp something that possesses a natural and elusive quality. This drive to capture a certain elegance or lightness can lead to the realization that some things are not meant to be held.
The dreamer finds that the interruption of a cycle is a functional part of how the mind processes change. The suddenness of the event provides a way to prepare for transitions that do not allow for hesitation.
A deer being killed shows an event that reaches a point of no return. The abrupt end that the dream depicts serves to show how a process can be halted by a force that is both sudden and absolute.
The act of hunting deer brings an active intention to the dream, where the dreamer is the one pursuing a fleeting grace. This drive to capture something that constantly slips away shifts the focus from the event itself to the desire to secure something that is inherently difficult to catch.

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.
