Sometimes we dream of royalty. The Queen, King, the Court itself, staff, pages etc. What does this mean?
Royals Aligned with the Gods
Royalty are (typically) leaders – leaders of government, industry, commerce and fashion. They have classically represented what we as commoners aspire to be, all the while knowing it’s impossible. Historically royals were aligned with the Gods (or God). Wealth, position, education, breeding, privilege, entitlement are words we associate with royalty.
When We Dream of Royalty We Should Ponder Cultural Associations
What are we aiming to attain without any real hope of doing so? Are our goals a little too lofty or is our confidence flagging in the face of a realistic goal?
Who in our lives is taking a God-like place in our admiration and imagination?
How might we be acting with a sense of entitlement?
Are They Behaving Appropriately to the Dream Situation?
Our feelings towards this royalty in our dreams may be the the salient clue. Do we like them? Are they behaving appropriately to the dream situation?
Royalty dreams call for us to pay attention! They are important which is why your mind cast these dream characters in this role.
