This site's view
In this site's view, ask whether it was a sleepless dawn or a fresh waking. Sleepless: a long worry is passing its peak. Rested: you are ready. A frighteningly deep red may warn against rushing.
Going deeper: our reading
A red morning sky lasts only a short while around sunrise. Many people see the evening glow on their way home, but only early risers or those who stayed up all night meet the dawn glow, which gives it a secret, private quality. In this site's reading, the dream depends on what kind of night led you to it. Waking refreshed and opening the window to a crimson sky suggests energy for new beginnings is filling you naturally. Watching the dawn after a sleepless night may mean a long worry is finally showing signs of resolution. This is our speculation, but seeing the sunrise after talking all night with someone marks a turning point where that relationship deepens. If the red seemed too intense and unsettling, you may be holding as much fear of change as hope for a new start.
What to do on waking
Rise a little early and look at the sky for one minute. Choosing your own start supports the fresh beginning.
