Transfiguration

Transfiguration — a being lit from within by the divine — often touches a faith that raises you above petty opinion into a worthy position, able to help the persecuted. The dream may ask where a sense of something higher is elevating you, and whether you can let that lifting clarity set you above triviality and toward the good of others.

What the old dream-books say

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for transfiguration, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.

Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901

Ten Thousand Dreams Interpreted

To dream of the transfiguration, foretells that your faith in man's own nearness to God will raise you above trifling opinions, and elevate you to a worthy position, in which capacity you will be able to promote the well being of the ignorant and persecuted.

To see yourself transfigured, you will stand high in the esteem of honest and prominent men.
