Afternoon
To dream of being aware that it is the afternoon represents feelings about the middle point of a project or task, indicating that the dreamer is halfway through and still has work to do. Feelings of being unconcerned with any issues related to running out of time. There is no sense of beginning or ending to a situation while you are in the middle of dealing with an issue.
Afternoon symbolism may not be very significant in a dream unless it is specifically referred to.
Example: A woman dreamed of being at home doing her job counselling a young woman as a minister in the afternoon when her ex-boyfriend knocked on the door and came inside asking where to put his clothes. In waking life, she was preparing for a women's conference and ministering to others. She hadn't thought of her ex in a very long time. In this case, the symbolism for the afternoon may have reflected her feelings about being in the middle of her job or preparation for the women's conference without any concern for time while experiencing a distraction that may have cost her time.
