Small but strong, the tugboat stands for quiet effort that moves something far larger than itself. It is traditionally read as the helper who guides others into harbour, or the steady push needed to get a stuck matter moving.

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.
