Dreaming of teacher

Artemidorus · Oneirocritica

Drawn up, it speaks of To be instructed by a teacher foretells advancement through counsel, and friendship with someone above you in years or station that will bear fruit.

Drawn down, it warns of To be examined and found unready warns of a matter approached unprepared; the dream counsels study, delay, and one more reading of the terms.

Jungian · the collective unconscious

Drawn up, it speaks of The teacher is the inner guide wearing a familiar authority, the wise part of you showing up with chalk on its hands. To be taught gladly in a dream means you have become willing to not-know, which is where all growth starts.

Drawn down, it warns of A shaming or impossible teacher is the inner critic in a borrowed gown, grading your life by a rubric no one ever agreed to. Old classroom dreams often mark tests you already passed but never let yourself leave.
