Grotto
A grotto often touches hidden, inconstant depths — incomplete friendships, or the unexpected meeting of an absent loved one in a sheltered hollow. The dream may ask what you're discovering in a half-concealed inner place, whether a connection there is shallow or deep, and what return or reunion the quiet cavern is drawing you toward.
A live archive of what the world is dreaming tonight: which symbols are rising, the collective mood, and where the dreams are coming from. Free, always.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for grotto, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To see a grotto in your dreams, is a sign of incomplete and inconstant friendships. Change from comfortable and simple plenty will make showy poverty unbearable.
Fontaine, 1862
To dream of being in a grotto, or cavern in the earth, shows that you will soon meet a near and dear relative: if you live away from home, something will occur to cause your return: such a dream always foretells meeting your absent friends.
