where the dream is set

Dreaming of market

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

Artemidorus · Oneirocritica

Drawn up, it speaks of A full and busy marketplace foretells profit, opportunity, the meeting of useful strangers. To sell your goods at a fair price denotes labors rewarded and your name in good standing.

Drawn down, it warns of An empty market warns of ventures ill-timed, stalls shut and buyers gone. To be robbed or shortchanged in the crowd signals a partner or a dealing wanting closer watch.

Jungian · the collective unconscious

Drawn up, it speaks of The market is the psyche's exchange floor, where the inner goods, talents, desires, values, get traded with the world. Buying and selling easily means the traffic between inner and outer life is flowing, and you're asking what your things are worth.

Drawn down, it warns of Having nothing to sell, or a stall no one visits, points to worth unrecognized, first of all by the dreamer. Being cheated in the market is a shadow figure showing you where you underprice yourself in waking rooms.
