Dreaming of Poppies
poppies, opium poppy, poppy field, wildflowers · mostly negative behind a pleasant face
Poppies promise seductive pleasures and flattering business, all on shaky ground.
What happens in the dream
- You see poppies: a season of pleasures and flattering success, but none of it stable
- You breathe in their scent: you may fall for flattery and smooth talk
How you felt
- Enchantment: the dream may reflect a pull toward whatever helps you forget everyday life
- A vague unease: perhaps a sense that something too good won't last
Ask yourself
- What is flattering me right now, and at what cost?
- What are my current plans really built on?
