Case Studies

Case 1

Interpretation: The priest role represents triumph over adversaries (symbolized by ghosts). The predictive dreams may indicate heightened intuition, but consult professionals if causing distress.

Interpretation: This reflects academic stress (during and after exams). The priest represents authority figures, while the bullying suggests rebellion against pressures – a call to manage anxiety better.
