GENERAL

Dream Meaning

A general commands from a place of absolute accountability — every decision ripples outward to affect those in their charge, and this weight is precisely what the figure of the general brings into your dream. If you yourself appear as the general, your unconscious may be telling you that you are ready to step into a leadership role you have been hesitating to claim, that the moment for decisiveness has arrived and cannot be indefinitely postponed.

If an imposing general stands before you and you are not them, examine your relationship to authority: are you following orders out of fear rather than conviction, or have you surrendered your power to someone who may not deserve it? The general in your dream holds a mirror to your own capacity for command and your comfort with carrying responsibility.
