Dreaming of a Patent
patent, copyright, invention, trademark · mixed
Securing a patent shows care in your work; failing to get one, ventures beyond your skills.
What happens in the dream
- You secure a patent: you'll be careful and thorough in what you take on
- You buy a patent: a tiring, pointless trip
- You fail to get it: failure because you're taking on things you're not suited for
- You see a patent: some trouble through illness
How you felt
- Creative pride: the dream may reflect a wish to have your work recognized
- Self-doubt: a fear of not measuring up
Ask yourself
- Which idea do I want to protect or have recognized?
- Am I venturing where I'm out of my depth?
