Seeing an Owl in a Dream

Seeing an owl in a dream is considered an ill omen. There are folk sayings such as "If an owl enters the house at night, something bad will happen" and "It's not scary to hear an owl crying, but it's scary to hear it laughing." Owls are often regarded as "ill omens," called "soul-hunting birds" or "funeral birds." In ancient China, they were also known as "strange hawks," "ghost chariots," "demons' souls," or "flowing relics," symbolizing misfortune and death.
