Cuckoo in a dream: meaning

What dream books say

The cuckoo lays its eggs in other birds’ nests, so folk tradition reads it as intrusion, something that does not belong, or someone taking a place that is not theirs. Its call is also the classic voice of spring and of time passing.

A question for you

Does the traditional reading fit your dream, or did it mean something else to you?
