Light is understanding, revelation, the divine and consciousness. A sudden light in a dream is often an insight breaking through.
When the dream feels light
A warm light or a light at the end of a tunnel promises hope, clarity and help.
When the dream feels dark
A blinding or flickering light may point to a truth too strong to face or fragile faith.
Ask yourself
What is becoming clear to me now?
