Gardener
A keeper of a garden — a patient cultivator who knows the long calendar of plants.
A gardener in a dream is the dream's image of a patient cultivator who knows the long calendar of plants. The gardener does not hurry the tomato; the gardener prepares the bed, plants in the right month, and waits the season out. The dream brings the gardener when something in your life — a long project, a slow piece of education, a relationship being tended over years — is being held in the right kind of patient long-cycle care. A gardener at work in the right month is the dream affirming the calendar. A gardener who has planted out of season, with the seedlings frostbitten in the morning, is the dream noting that impatience for the next stage has put the work in the ground before the conditions were ready.
