Guilt, regret, or nostalgia for the time spent together. Fear of repeating the same mistakes in current relationships or friendships.

Confidence in yourself being wiser than someone else for refusing to be aggressive. Listening to advice that tells you to have integrity by being passive.

Example: A young girl dreamed of talking to Gandhi. In waking life, she was getting advice from her boyfriend about dealing with her arrogant siblings. Her boyfriend told her to ignore the negative attitude of her sisters and focus more on moving out into an apartment with him as a way to get away from her sisters. She was only 15 and not old enough to move out yet. In this case, Gandhi may have reflected the dreamer listening to her boyfriend's advice regarding moving out and handling conflict, symbolizing the peaceful, non-confrontational approach he suggested. The presence of Gandhi might signify the idea of maintaining moral integrity and patience in dealing with her siblings' arrogant attitude, while also exploring the possibility of gaining independence and freedom in the future when she's old enough to move out."

Example 2: A teenage boy dreamed of a voice telling him that "a lion was not a worthy symbol of spiritual guidance" and then he became confused because he thought Ghandi had meditated with the guidance of a lion. In waking life, he felt that his mother was beginning to lose trust in him about his school performance and thought that meditating on the issue would help him. He later felt that he might be overly paranoid about keeping his mother happy and that there was nothing at school he wasn't achieving well at. In this case, Ghandi may have reflected his initial instincts about needing to remain calm, peaceful, and non-confrontational in handling his mother.

Example 3: A gay man dreamed of decorating downtown city buildings with Ghandi-like robes. In waking life, his partner had written a blog post with anti-media sentiment that condemned media consolidation.
