Vastness that dwarfs the self
What it often means
A galaxy in a dream is immensity — countless lights, unfathomable scale, the self made small against the cosmos. It can stir awe or insignificance, a sense of being one point in something vast and beautiful. It often appears when the large questions of meaning and belonging are stirring.
