Diadem
A light ornamental band worn on the head — honour worn high without the weight of a crown.
A diadem in a dream is the dream's image of honour worn high without the weight of a crown. The diadem marks recognition; it is not the heavy instrument of office. The dream brings the diadem when something in your life — a public acknowledgement, a peer honour, a small but real elevation — is being received as a visible light marker without the obligations a fuller authority would bring. A diadem worn at the right occasion is the dream affirming the proportion. A diadem worn every day as if it were a permanent fixture is the dream noting that the moment of recognition has been kept on too long, and what was a graceful marker has become a constant claim.
