A rabbit is the quick, light pulse of something growing that you must track. This dream suggests a preoccupation with the quickening of things, where the capacity for growth or the arrival of a sudden advantage requires your attention. You are caught between the stirrings of a small hope and the sudden rush of a chance that comes and goes without warning.
The way you encounter this movement determines how you relate to the shifting currents of your own progress. If you feel the presence of this symbol as something to be managed, you are looking at the way your inner resources are being mobilized. You are watching the way a need to tend to a new possibility fights against the fear that such things are too fragile to hold. You are observing the speed of your own becoming, and the way you track these fleeting rhythms may reveal how you handle the quickening of your own circumstances.
Things feel unsteady when you see these chances moving faster than you can reach them. Your ability to recognize these sudden shifts allows you to move with the rhythm of what is growing.
