Devotion

Showing devotion — to the sacred or to family — often touches integrity and the quiet warning that nothing real is won through deceit. The dream may ask where sincere faithfulness is grounding you, whether honesty is the surer path in your dealings, and what plenteous, peaceful return genuine commitment might bring.

Miller 1901

What the old dream-books say

Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
