Purple Crown in dreams
Earned authority — sometimes accepted, sometimes refused.
How purple changes the reading
The base reading of Crown
A crown in a dream is the dictionary's image of earned authority. A crown placed on your head is the dream's image of recognition of standing you have already accrued. A heavy crown is the dictionary's older image — the responsibility that comes with the recognition.
Refusing the crown in the dream is sometimes wisdom — the role is not yours — and sometimes the dictionary's image of self-rejection.
Where you often see it. A crown handed to you. A crown you refuse. A crown found in a small box. The dream uses the crown for earned authority — sometimes accepted, sometimes refused.
What it is not. A crown is not always power. The dictionary reads it as the dreamer's relationship to taking up their own authority.
