A partner is read as closeness and the wish to be met. A former partner is traditionally less about that person and more about a feeling or a chapter that is not finished. Being happy with your partner in a dream points to security and emotional fulfilment. A partner leaving or cheating is linked to fear of loss or insecurity rather than to anything happening in reality. An ex returning is read as reflection on old patterns, lessons or memories. A partner you have never met stands for qualities you long for; it can help to ask what the feeling in the dream asks of you now.
When this appeared in your dream, what were you feeling?
My Cosmic Code has a private dream journal. Write a dream down and the app picks out the symbols in it, shows what dream books say about them and, over time, which words recur across your entries. The journal is stored on your device only.
