How rough changes the reading
The base reading of Compass
A compass in a dream is the dictionary's image of a reference point. The needle points to the direction you are calling true — sometimes this is a value, sometimes a person, sometimes an inherited belief. The dream is rarely critical of the compass itself; it sometimes asks you to look at what the needle is pointing at.
Where you often see it. A compass with a needle that spins. A compass that points to something specific. The dream uses the compass for a reference point — what direction you are choosing to call true.
What it is not. A compass is not always accurate in dreams. The dictionary often reads its malfunction as the dreamer's loss of internal orientation.
