Personal symbolism
Fire can be both illuminating and dangerous, and this dream’s meaning turns on what happens to you in it. A hand burned by clear, flowing fire is linked with purity of purpose and approval from friends; feet crossing coals suggest an ability to accomplish what others consider impossible. The reading also says usual good health remains, unless you are overcome by the fire, when your interests suffer through betrayal by supposed friends. Recall whether you moved through the flames or were defeated by them.
Questions to reflect on
