Rough Heart in dreams
Center of feeling — the rhythm by which you actually live.
How rough changes the reading
The base reading of Heart
A heart in a dream is the dictionary's image of the center of feeling. A heart pounding is the dream's image of urgency that is not yet linked to a clear cause. A heart at rest is the dream noting that the inner pace of your life is healthy.
A broken heart in the dream is rarely the dramatic image it would be in waking life — it is the dream's clearest image of a specific recent disappointment you have not yet fully named.
Where you often see it. The heart beating too loud. A heart held in the hand. A heart pierced cleanly. The dream uses the heart for the centre of feeling — the rhythm by which you actually live.
What it is not. A heart dream is rarely a literal cardiac warning. It is the dictionary's image of where feeling is and what it is doing.
