Ascend
To ascend in a dream — to climb steps or rise toward a height — is the very shape of aspiration. To reach the top without stumbling is good; to falter on the way marks obstacles to clear first. The dream tends to ask what we are climbing toward, and whether the footing beneath us will hold.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for ascend, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
If you reach the extreme point of ascent, or top of steps, without stumbling, it is good; otherwise, you will have obstacles to overcome before the good of the day is found.
