One goose or many

  • A lone goose

    A bird on its own can evoke independence or the need for useful solitude. Think about whether its separation felt chosen, peaceful or difficult.

  • A flock in flight

    A flock can reflect what is possible when several people share a purpose. Flight adds a sense of freedom or aspiration, especially if you could see where the birds were heading.

Sound and water

  • Honking or swimming geese

    A loud call can direct your attention to an unsettled concern, while calm swimming can evoke peace. Recall whether the scene made you want to look more carefully or simply feel comfortable where you were.
