Scarecrow – A scarecrow is a totem of death and fear, but it simultaneously holds the opposite symbolism of hope and prosperity. The exact meaning of the dream symbol depends on whether you are the crow or the farmer, in the dream. Scarecrows are meant to frighten away crows from the crops, which is why they are often eerie and frightening. They are pseudo-human creations, which puts them in the same category as dolls. They are symbols of death because they carry the reminder of the fear of starvation, if the crows eat the harvest. On the other hand, they are symbols of harvest and plenty. The exact connotation of this symbol will depend on the other symbols surrounding this one, and the emotions you dream of experiencing in connection to it as well.
