They may also be seen as a period when answers are slow to arrive. (In folk dream interpretation, scenes of diagnosis and testing are sometimes read as a process in which real-life worries come to light and are confirmed.)
Through the mind: These dreams may appear when people around you say, “It’s okay,” but you feel they don’t really understand how hard things are for you. You may also not have found the words to explain your feelings yet.
