What is the symbolic meaning of the raven?

Depending of the context the symbolic meaning can change. If one is refering to dream interpretation...

Birds in general mean hopes, aspirations, future and change.

Ravens in particular mean mischief, to roam, and intense hunger.

However, in the awake sense ravens are thought to be the guardians (so to speak) of graveyards and the dead.

Ravens are also considered to be omens of ill.

***In Welsh folklore, the raven is also an omen of death. If the raven makes a choking sound, it is a portent of the death rattle. A crying raven on a church steeple will "overlook" the next house where death will occur. A raven could smell death and would hover over the area where the next victim dwelt, including animals. Ravens were heard to "laugh" when someone was about to die. Welsh witches, and the Devil, would transform themselves into ravens. ***

However, in some eastern traditions the raven is a good symbol and most commonly associated with the sun.

***To invoke Raven as bird of prophecy, you can use the old English rhyme used to interpret omens by the number of ravens, crows, or rooks seen in a flock: One for bad news,

Two for mirth. Three is a wedding, Four is a birth. Five is for riches, Six is a thief.Seven, a journey, Eight is for grief. Nine is a secret, Ten is for sorrow. Eleven is for love,Twelve - joy for tomorrow. ***

What does a raven symbolize?

I believe ravens symbolize darkness, just as in Poe's poem , "The Raven." These are birds that observe, as if lurking and waiting for their next victim. They can be wily and scary. ---------- The raven symbolizes many different things to different peoples. In most traditions you see a link to death. With the Native Americans that link was through the ravens ability to shape shift, symbolizing the transition into the afterlife. For the Celts the goddesses of war called down the ravens to feast on the dead at battle fields.

You also find in most traditions the idea that the raven is a wise trickster. Unlike the coyote in Native American myth who is tricky but often times foolish the raven has the knowledge to fool its opponents and get away with it. This often leads to Shamans believing that the vast knowledge held by the raven should only be sought in times of great need and only with great care.

And finally you see throughout almost all traditions a link between the raven and magic. Perhaps because of its knowledge or maybe its tricky ways the raven is linked to the Shamans magic in Native American myth, to witches and warlocks in English myth, to the miracles and portents of the future in Celtic myth and to the magical escapes of evil priests in old Christian myth. Depending on the prevalent view of magic at the time of the myth the aspect of the Raven can shift from that of a powerful healer to something more akin to the bringer or foreteller of death or evil.

All in all, the raven has always been seen as the king of the tricky corvus family and, as such, a force to be reckoned with.
