Dreaming of a Dome

dome, cupola, rotunda · mixed, depending on your vantage point

Taking in the view from inside a dome promises a happy change; seeing one from afar, an ambition that stays out of reach.

What happens in the dream

  • You're inside a dome looking out on a strange landscape: a happy change, and an honored place among strangers
  • You see a dome from a distance: you won't reach the height of your ambitions
  • If you're in love and see the dome from afar: the person you desire will scorn your attentions

How you felt

  • Elevation: the dream often reflects a wish to rise above your situation and see it whole
  • Frustration: perhaps a sense that a goal remains out of reach

Ask yourself

  • Which goal still feels far away?
  • What would I see if I stepped back a little?
