Pilgrim
A pilgrim in dreams often speaks to the tension between devotion and doubt—moving toward something sacred while leaving comfort behind. Perhaps the journey itself matters more than any destination, or maybe what you're seeking has been traveling alongside you all along.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for pilgrim, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To dream of pilgrims, denotes that you will go on an extended journey, leaving home and its dearest objects in the mistaken idea that it must be thus for their good.
To dream that you are a pilgrim, portends struggles with poverty and unsympathetic companions.
For a young woman to dream that a pilgrim approaches her, she will fall an easy dupe to deceit. If he leaves her, she will awaken to her weakness of character and strive to strengthen independent thought.
