Efua NyansaCoughing up a lung in a dream shows where the vital spirit of your house is being forced out by what you carry. When the breath that sustains a person is no longer held within, the very essence that connects you to your kin begins to thin. This dream speaks of a way of living that exhausts the spirit, where the struggle to sustain oneself comes at the cost of the life force that should nourish the whole gathering.
We have seen that when a person tries to hold onto too much or faces a weight that cannot be swallowed, the spirit is expelled in a violent way. This exhaustion does not stay with you alone, for a person who cannot breathe deeply leaves the air thin for everyone in the courtyard. You may feel as though the very foundation of your being is being emptied, child, as the struggle for survival takes more than it gives. The heavy side is the way this loss of spirit leaves the household vulnerable to the winds that blow between the houses. There is a quiet strength in learning to release what is not yours to carry, and this brings a steady rhythm back to your lungs and your kin. May your breath be deep and your spirit remain full.
For its more general meaning: Dream about coughing
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.
