Dreaming of Opulence
opulence · mostly negative, unless the wealth feels real
Opulence in a dream sets real comfort, which is a good sign, against fairy- tale luxury, which brings disappointment.
What happens in the dream
- Enjoying solid, real wealth and comfort: you'll wake to some genuine pleasure, the one happy reading
- Living in fairy-tale luxury: you'll be deceived, and a spell of easy splendour will give way to hardship and shame
- Wildly unreal dreams of luxury: disappointments in waking life
How you felt
- Escapism: the dream often reflects a wish for an easier life
- Clear-eyed doubt: it may mirror a fear of fooling yourself
Ask yourself
- Are my dreams of comfort realistic or fantasy?
- What would make me truly rich, beyond money?
