Saving a hummingbird means you are trying to hold onto a joy that is meant to move through your life rather than stay within it. When we reach out to catch what is meant to be swift, we often find that the very act of grasping changes the nature of the grace we sought. This dream shows a way of behaving where the heart tries to keep a moment still, yet such stillness is not where the spirit of the news lives.
In the houses of our people, we know that a bird that stays is a bird that has lost its song. You are learning, child, that the lightness you feel is not a thing to be stored in a box or kept under a hand, for it belongs to the air and the passing wind. There is a weight in trying to tether what is free, and this can leave you feeling as though you have caught only a shadow. The lightness of the world is already present in your hands, even as it flies. May your spirit find rest in the beauty of what passes by.

Efua NyansaInterpreter interprets your dreams
Sit down first, child. The dream is not going anywhere. The elders used to say that a person is never read alone. Whoever stood beside you in the dream matters as much as what you saw, and the path behind you matters as much as the one ahead. Look, a dream with your people in it has already done half its work. May the name you were given keep you well.
