Dreaming of Joy
joy, gladness, happiness · positive, with one exception
Joy foretells harmony and an end to fear, unless it tips into ecstasy.
What happens in the dream
- Joy and festivity: a good sign if you hope to marry, and fun if you love company
- Feeling joy: harmony among friends
- If you're sad or fearful: an end to heaviness and fear
- Ecstatic joy: pain and trouble, the one dark note
How you felt
- Fulfilment: the dream often reflects a need to notice what's going well
- A little wariness: fear that happiness won't last
Ask yourself
- What makes me happy right now?
- Do I let myself savour my joy?
