Damn mornings come too early sometimes.
Flock of birds, thought they were heading north but direction wasn't quite right. Heading at an angle that was veering more toward the west and then south.
The sky itself looked stormy, and I thought a tornado or hurricane was coming. That perhaps the birds were trying to beat the storm that was coming. I could hear thunder and the birds looked a bit ruffled and frightened. Some were possibly injured, but they were still in the air, and flying their little hearts out
Train, loud, in clouds, heading in basically the same direction but veered more west/north.
I got the sense at this point that the birds might be a bit safer at this point? But... my brother and I were not.
My brother standing near the house. I called his attention to the train. Told him it was a Ghost train. He looked a bit worried. I noticed that my brother wasn't the right age. He was younger than me, and he ran back toward the house.
The house was up above where I was standing. And I started to try to climb it, suddenly afraid of the storm, and I wanted to tell Mum about the Ghost train coming. To warn her, to ask her advice. See what she thought!
The path to the house though was very difficult. The steps were destroyed, pretty much. It was like trying to scale the side of a cliff. The path kept dividing and going off into dead ends, and I had to climb on my hands and knees for every step, finding finger and toe holds, holding on to the side sometimes while I tried to catch my breath. The entire time, I could hear the loud rumble of the train, and the rumble of the thunder.
I didn't get to the top... woke up.
Let's see... my books say:
To dream of dead or dying birds, foretells a period of coming disappointments. You will find yourself worrying over problems that are constantly on your mind.
To see a train in your dream, represents conformity. You are going along with what everyone else is doing. Or you have a need to do things in an orderly and sequential manner. In particular, if you see a freight train, then it refers to the burdens and problems that you are hauling around. Trains have also been used as symbolism for the afterlife journey
To see a storm in your dream, signifies overwhelming struggle, shock, devastating loss and catastrophe in your personal affairs. The storm also represents unexpressed fears or emotions, such as anger, rage, turmoil, etc. On a more positive note, the storm signifies your rising spirituality. It could signal rapid changes ahead for you.
To dream that you take cover in a storm, foretells that whatever disturbance or problems is occurring in your life will quickly blow over. Consider also the phrase "weather the storm", which suggests your ability and strength to withstand whatever comes.
To dream that you or someone falls off a cliff, suggests that you are going through some difficult times and are afraid of what is ahead for you. You fear that you may not be up for the challenge or that you cannot meet the expectations of others.
To dream that you are climbing to the top of a cliff, symbolizes your ambition and drive. The dream may parallel your desires to achieve success and be the at the top of your profession. It is analogous to climbing the corporate ladder.
To see your mother in your dream, represents the nurturing aspect of your own character. Mothers offer shelter, comfort, life, guidance and protection. Some people may have problems freeing themselves from their mothers and are thus seeking their own individuality and development.
To dream that you are having a conversation with your mother, denotes a matter that has preoccupied your mind and you are not sure how to deal with it in your waking life. It indicates unresolved problems that still need to be worked out with your mother.
To see your brother in your dream, may symbolize some aspect of your relationship with him. It can also serve to remind you that someone in your waking life has certain characteristics/behavior similar to your brother's.
Notes on direction:
North
To dream of the direction north, symbolizes reality. It also indicates that you are making progress and moving forward in life.
South
To dream of the direction south, indicates life, expectations, and questions. Alternatively, it may symbolize love, passion and warmth. Or it is an indication that a plan has gone awry.
East
To dream that you are headed east, represents inner wisdom, rejuvenation, and spiritual enlightenment. You need to devote or dedicate yourself to your goals, family, career, etc. The direction east also symbolizes the sun. Since east is related to the direction right, it can suggest that you are headed in the right direction.
West
To dream of going west, represents fulfillment, opportunities, and growth. Alternatively, it may symbolize an ending of something, death, or old age.
I'm going to have to really think about this. Figure everything out.
