Personal symbolism
An adversary brings conflict, self-protection, and the possibility of a serious threat into the dream. Meeting or engaging one points to defending your interests, while the dream also connects that encounter with possible illness. Overcoming the adversary changes the emphasis to escaping a disaster’s effects. Notice how the confrontation unfolded: were you prepared to defend yourself, or did you gain the upper hand? The opponent’s identity and the outcome may help you reflect on a pressure or conflict that feels consequential in your waking life.
Questions to reflect on
- Did you defend yourself or overcome the adversary?
- What interest or serious concern did the opponent seem to represent?
