Dignity
The held quality of being someone — the stance of remaining a person in circumstances designed to reduce you.
Dignity in a dream is the dream's image of the stance of remaining a person in circumstances designed to reduce you. Dignity is not pride; dignity is what is left when pride has been taken. The dream brings dignity when something in your life — a humiliation, a forced compromise, a scene in which you are being made less of — is being met by an interior that the conditions cannot reach. Dignity carried through a hard scene is the dream affirming the held person. Dignity abandoned in the scene, with the interior collapsing into the role being imposed, is the dream noting that the conditions have been allowed to reach where they were not meant to.
