Dreaming of an Island

A green island promises happiness and good journeys, but a deserted one points to isolation.
What happens in the dream
- Being on an island in a clear stream: pleasant journeys and lucky ventures
- If you're single: a happy marriage
- Seeing an island: comfort after much effort to meet your obligations
- People on an island: a struggle to rise in prominent circles
- A barren island: happiness and money lost through excess
- Being on a deserted island: behaviour that will put off your friends and drive them away
How you felt
- A need for solitude: the dream often reflects a wish to withdraw for a while
- Isolation: fear of being cut off from others
Ask yourself
- Do I need time alone, or do I feel alone?
- What separates me from others right now?
