Watching while things simply happen to you is traditionally read as a feeling of having little say in your own life. It can also stand for a wish to rest and let others carry the load for a while.

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.
