Journeyman

A journeyman — the trained worker hired by the day — often touches money lost to useless travels, or unexpected trips ahead. The dream may ask where effortful movement might cost more than it earns, whether a journey you're weighing will pay off or wear you down, and how skilled-but-itinerant labour mirrors your own restless going-about.

Miller 1901

What the old dream-books say

Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
