Hassock

A hassock — a low cushion knelt or rested upon — often touches the yielding of your power or fortune to another. The dream may ask where you're sinking into a passive, subordinate place, whether you're handing over standing you should keep, and how cultivating more spirit and independence might lift you off your knees.

Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
