# Quetzal Dream Meaning

> In Mesoamerican cultures, the Quetzal is a symbol of freedom, beauty, and wealth. Revered for its vibrant plumage, the Quetzal is associated with the air, sky, and the gods, particularly in Mayan mythology, where it is considered sacred. Its inability to survive in captivity makes it a potent symbol of liberty and the soul's desire for independence.
