Island in a dream
Folk tradition reads an island in a dream as a wish for a break and a small world where everything fits you.
In folk belief, an island is a dream about rest and a corner of your own. A green island in the middle of the sea is read as a need to step aside for a short while, not as loneliness. Old dream books say that whoever reaches an island in a dream is finishing some tiring journey in waking life. A boat or a bridge to the shore is read as a tie to people that you do not lose even when you withdraw. It is said everyone has an island, even if it is only a favorite armchair.
