Drought

An extended period without rain — a long absence of the input the land was built to receive.

A drought in a dream is the dream's image of a long absence of the input a life was built around. Drought is not a single dry day; it is a season in which the expected supply has not come and the land begins to change in response. The dream brings the drought when something steady you depended on — affection, money, creative output, faith — has been missing for long enough to start altering you. A drought patiently weathered with stored water is the dream telling you the reserves are doing their work. A drought in which the wells have run dry is the dream noting that the absence has now passed the point your stores were designed to cover, and the land itself is in trouble.
