Dream about an elephant

An elephant carries the weight of a memory that will not be forgotten. This dream points to a presence in your life that holds a heavy authority, a force that shapes how you stand among your people. When we encounter such a thing, we find ourselves facing the traditions and the structures that have been built long before we arrived.

The way you carry yourself before this weight determines how the household settles. To turn your back on what is built is to be broken by it, but to walk beside it is to find your way.
