Dolphin pod
A group of dolphins moving together — playful, intelligent company keeping easy pace with the swimmer.
A pod of dolphins in a dream is the dream's image of playful, intelligent company that keeps easy pace with a swimmer. Dolphins approach boats and people without needing to; the contact is offered rather than demanded. The dream brings the pod when something in your life — a friendship, a working partnership, a community — is offering company at a level that does not require strain to keep. A pod arriving alongside is the dream affirming the easy pace. A pod swimming away when the boat changes course is the dream noting that the company is conditional on a direction you may no longer be holding.
