Patience
The capacity to remain inside slow time — willingness to wait for a process that cannot be hurried.
Patience in a dream is the dream's image of the capacity to remain inside slow time without trying to force it. Patience is not passivity; the patient person is doing the work of staying. The dream brings patience when something in your life — a healing, a relationship, a piece of work — is unfolding at its own pace, and the honest move is to remain present without pushing. Patience held with attention is the dream affirming that the wait is real work and is being done. Patience that has become numbness, with no attention left in it, is the dream noting that the wait has lost its purpose and is now a hiding place.
