Waiting in a dream: meaning

What dream books say

Waiting is read as a pause before something decided by others. Tradition takes it as impatience, and as the question of what you are waiting for. Waiting for someone who never comes is linked to disappointment or a fear of being forgotten, while waiting in a long line points to frustration with slow progress. Waiting for a train or bus is read as a transition you cannot yet start. Calm waiting stands for trust in good timing. The dream may reflect a decision or answer in waking life that you feel is out of your hands.
