Folk lore is full of signs said to herald a death, but dream books read them as anxiety about change, not as real warnings. Such a sign in a dream reflects the fear of an ending rather than any event.
Where in your waking life have you met something like this lately?
My Cosmic Code has a private dream journal. Write a dream down and the app picks out the symbols in it, shows what dream books say about them and, over time, which words recur across your entries. The journal is stored on your device only.
