Swans symbolize grace, femininity, beauty and dignity. These beautiful white birds stand for good health, prosperity, good fortune and upcoming happy times in your waking life when seen swimming gracefully in clear waters.

These birds may also announce good news you are going to receive soon or the disclosure of a mystery.

Swans seen in flight represent good luck and announce the attainment of all goals.

Seeing a black swan swimming in a clear water in your dream symbolizes primitive desires and hidden, forbidden pleasures.

On the other hand, seeing a wounded, dying or dead swan bears a negative significance and foretells distressing times to come.

If we think about the phrase 'swan song' which symbolizes a final emotional farewell, then the graceful bird in your dream stands for a phase in your life which has recently ended and from which you have to move on and be open to live new experiences.
