Forgiveness
The state of having released a debt — the inside of the decision to stop holding an injury against the cause.
Forgiveness in a dream is the dream's image of the inside of the decision to stop holding an injury against its cause. Forgiveness as a state is different from forgiveness as an act; the act can be done in a minute, the state takes longer to settle. The dream brings forgiveness when something in your life — a long grievance, an old resentment, a piece of family history — has reached the stage where the debt can be set down without pretence. Forgiveness arrived at honestly is the dream telling you the weight has come off and the room is bigger. Forgiveness declared but not felt is the dream noting that the announcement has been made and the inside is still carrying the full load.
