Pine tree
An evergreen of cold places — life kept up through the long season when nothing else is growing.
A pine tree in a dream is the dream's image of life kept up through the season when nothing else holds. Pines stay green when the rest of the forest is bare; they are the demonstration that some kind of growth can continue through cold. The dream brings the pine when a steady, modest activity in your life — a practice, a friendship, a routine — is the thing that has held while everything else has gone quiet. A pine standing in snow is the dream affirming the steadiness. A pine cut for timber is the dream noting that the steady thing is now being used for something else entirely, and its winter function is over.
