Dreaming of the Catechism
catechism, creed, religious instruction, Sunday school · mixed
The catechism signals a well-paid offer, but with strings that will make you hesitate.
What happens in the dream
- The catechism: you'll be offered a lucrative position, but its strict terms will make you wonder whether to accept
How you felt
- Rules from outside: the dream often mirrors a framework that weighs on you
- A need for bearings: it may reflect a search for clear principles
Ask yourself
- Which rules am I willing to accept, and at what cost?
- Are my values and my interests pulling the same way?
