dream about gold finch in the metro?

It began, with me and some friends chatting in an underground metro station.

as we were talking a goldfinch came down and I caught it (Not with constriction but in a way where if it wanted to fly away it could)

so I walked it up the stairs (the opening of which whose light never shined down before now) and out into the beautiful open outside where it decided to fly away and be free.

After it left my friends and a couple new ones (or maybe they were all new but just felt familiar) caught up with me.

While we were talking, someone who knew about the bird was appreciating it, petting and talking to it......but then she sat it down and realized it's neck was broken, and became furious at me as if I'd abused it.

It didn't seem to show it or react to the fact at all,

So I wasn't sure how I was supposed to know.

Can anyone interpret this?

    Really, you're the only one who can interpret this dream. Some pointers to get you started: Try and think of what the goldfinch might represent to you. Is it something beautiful, something free, something natural? And what does the symbolism of something being caught in the metro relate to in your life. Is there a part of you that you wish could be free or that feels constrained of confined - some aspect of your life, perhaps. Is there something in your self or in your life that you feel needs to be rescued?

    The second part might mean that there is some ambivalence in your mind about the actions of "saving" or "setting free" the goldfinch. Again, this will only make sense in the context of what the goldfinch might mean for you. Perhaps there is a concern that if you do engage in a freeing act that there will be potential negative consequences. It sounds as is there is some conflict surrounding the freeing of the bird - if you can relate that to some aspect in your life, that will likely lead to some understanding of this dream.
