Backgammon foretells a cool welcome from others but lasting friendships, and setbacks in love if you lose.
What happens in the dream
- Playing backgammon: when visiting, you'll meet an unfriendly welcome, yet unknowingly win friendships that can bear a lot of strain
- Losing the game: bad luck in love, and affairs that stay unsettled
How you felt
- Competitiveness: the dream may reflect a sense that life is a game of strategy
- Uncertainty: perhaps a feeling that chance is calling the shots
Ask yourself
- Where do I feel I'm playing a close game?
- What is truly up to me, and what is down to luck?
