Varnishing warns of deceptive appearances and foretells losses.
What happens in the dream
- Others varnish: friends are trying to profit at your expense
- You varnish something: you'll seek distinction by dishonest means, or a minor loss
- Your house or furniture newly varnished: a death
How you felt
- Appearances: concern for image
- Concealment: fear of what lies beneath being seen
Ask yourself
- What am I glossing over for others?
- Am I afraid my flaws will show?
