Darkness
The unlit part of life
What it often means
Darkness in dreams is not always danger — it is often the part of life you have not yet held a lantern to. The dream is teaching your eyes to adjust.
When it tends to appear
- When you are in the unknown phase of a transition
- When something has been hidden from yourself
- When trust is being asked of you without proof
Sit with these questions
- 1
What part of your life feels unlit right now?
- 2
What might gently hold a lantern there?
- 3
What do you sense is in the dark that you cannot yet see?
