Trauma in a dream is read as an old wound returning to be looked at, since the mind tends to revisit what it has not finished with. If such memories weigh heavily when you are awake, speaking with someone you trust can help.
Does the traditional reading fit your dream, or did it mean something else to you?
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.
