Saffron
A warm yellow-orange — the colour of devotion and of value that comes only from many small parts.
Saffron in a dream is the dream's image of a warm yellow-orange that is, in life, the colour of devotion robes and of the most expensive spice in the kitchen. Saffron is gathered thread by thread from a flower; the value comes only because many small pieces have been collected with care. The dream brings saffron when something in your life — a practice, a kindness, a discipline — is producing value only because many small acts have accumulated. A saffron-dyed cloth in good light is the dream affirming the practice. A saffron used carelessly, treated as if it were ordinary spice, is the dream noting that you are spending the costly accumulation without the attention it took to gather it.
