Burning books means a breaking of the old ways of knowing that once held your people together. When the records of a house are lost to the flame, the shared understanding that guided the hands of your kin begins to scatter like ash.
A dream like this shows a time when the words that bound the family to its history no longer offer the strength they once did. You are seeing a moment where the covenant is being tested by a sudden lack of direction. This loss of what was written leaves a silence where there used to be guidance, and in that silence, the connections between the living and the ancestors grow thin. It is a heavy thing to stand where the old truths have been consumed.
The wisdom that remains is now found in the way you treat one another in the present. May your heart find the new ways to hold your people close.

Efua NyansaInterpreter interprets your dreams
Sit down first, child. The dream is not going anywhere. The elders used to say that a person is never read alone. Whoever stood beside you in the dream matters as much as what you saw, and the path behind you matters as much as the one ahead. Look, a dream with your people in it has already done half its work. May the name you were given keep you well.
