where the dream is set

Dreaming of hospital

Read two ways. Let them disagree, the truth often sits between.

Artemidorus · Oneirocritica

Drawn up, it speaks of To be healed in a house of healing foretells recovery, of the body, of money, of a friendship you thought lost. To visit the sick and find them mending denotes good news of someone far away.

Drawn down, it warns of To lie ill among strangers warns of a weakness in your affairs whose tending you have delayed. To dream the healer will not see you signals help sought in the wrong quarter.

Jungian · the collective unconscious

Drawn up, it speaks of The hospital is the psyche's own infirmary, the admission at last that something inside needs tending and can't heal by being ignored. Being cared for in one means the inner healer is on shift, the wound acknowledged and dressed.

Drawn down, it warns of Wandering a hospital where no one comes is the wounded part of you filed and forgotten, hurt managed instead of met. Being the only doctor in the building points to a healer who has never once let themselves be the patient.
