Stall

A stall — a small fixed booth, or a stop in forward motion — often touches expecting impossible results from some enterprise. The dream may ask where you're holding out hope for an outcome the situation can't deliver, and whether your expectations have outrun what the stalled venture could realistically yield.

Miller 1901

Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
