White Chicken Dream Meanings
First of all, I want to explain the meaning of symbolism behind seeing a white-colored chicken in particular.
White is a spiritual, brilliant, pure, and interesting color to see in a dream. Especially in the form of an animal.
Bright white animals typically embody peace, rebirth, a new start, energy, and enlightenment.
White peacocks, doves, sheep, and wolves are some of the most popular animals that present themselves in dreams and bring good luck and fortune with them.
But is this the same for white chickens? Does seeing a white chicken represent a new start, a spiritual connection, and similar?
Not always, it really depends on what else is in your dream and what the chicken is doing as I’ll explain.

Dream About Killing a White Chicken Meaning
If you or someone else is killing a white chicken in your dream, this is a warning that something bad may be in your future.
For some people, this means they're not ready to embrace a spiritual connection, enlightenment, or meet a transformation in their life head-on.
You need to ask yourself some honest questions about your life, and why it may be that you need to make some serious changes - but aren't ready.
It doesn't have to be an entirely negative experience. The fact that you're seeing a white chicken is positive, it's the death in your dream that is negative.
I've known people that have addressed certain issues in their lives and turned these dreams into seeing healthy white chickens.
From there, they were able to make a spiritual connection to what seeing a white chicken means, and make some positive connections to progress in their lives.
