Monkey troop
A noisy band of monkeys in trees — quick social intelligence with very few private moments.
A monkey troop in a dream is the dream's image of quick social intelligence with very few private moments. The troop grooms, fights, and watches each other constantly; the individual barely exists outside the group. The dream brings the troop when something in your life — a team, a family, an online crowd — is operating with the same continuous visibility, and the cost of a moment of privacy has become very high. A troop grooming peacefully is the dream affirming the bond. A troop turning on one of its members, the circle suddenly hostile, is the dream noting that the social fabric is also the punishment, and exclusion from it carries the full weight of the group's earlier closeness.
