Dreaming of a Cloister
cloister, monastery · mixed
A cloister points to a wish for new surroundings, and to a sorrow that makes you less self-centred.
What happens in the dream
- Seeing a cloister: you're unhappy with your surroundings and will soon look for a new setting
- Another reading: a sorrow that will make you more generous and less wrapped up in yourself
How you felt
- A need to withdraw: the dream may reflect a wish to step back and breathe
- Restlessness: you may feel hemmed in where you are
Ask yourself
- Do I need quiet and solitude right now?
- What keeps me in a setting that no longer suits me?
