Ein langer Abschnitt ohne offensichtliche Ressourcen — mal geistig, mal sozial.

Die Basisdeutung von Wüste
A desert in a dream is the dictionary's image of a long stretch with no obvious resources. Sometimes it is spiritual dryness, sometimes a social isolation, sometimes a creative gap that has gone on too long.
The dream is rarely catastrophising. The desert in many traditions is also where clarity comes; the dream sometimes uses that meaning too.
Where you often see it. A desert walked alone. A desert at sunset. The dream uses the desert for a long stretch with no obvious resources — sometimes spiritual, sometimes social.
What it is not. A desert is not absence of life. The dictionary reads it as the stretch where less is visible than usual.
Related in the dictionary. Read desert with road, sun, and any scene of long crossings with reduced supply.
