Place

Lake in dreams

A pool of held feeling. Its stillness or turbulence is your emotional weather report.

Sit with this symbol

Dream symbols are rarely fixed. Everything above is a starting place — a doorway, not a destination. The lake in your dream is coloured by everything around it: who was there, what feeling stayed with you upon waking, and what is unfolding in your waking life.
