Drought

Dry season, Parched land, Dry riverbed

Cracked earth, empty riverbeds and thirsty plants give a drought its slow, patient feel. It usually turns up when something you depend on has been missing for a while, such as encouragement, inspiration or affection. The land isn't finished; it's waiting. Searching the sky for clouds shows a hope you haven't given up on. Fields turning brown can mean a project or a friendship has gone too long without attention.

Dream variations

• Rationing waterYou're stretching limited energy across too many needs. Decide which few deserve it.
• Watering a garden during a droughtYou're protecting what matters most with what little you have. Every bit of care counts here.
• Walking on cracked groundSomething that once felt easy, like evenings at home or a shared hobby, has turned stiff and dry. Little and often will soften it faster than one grand gesture.
• The first clouds after a long droughtRelief is close, even if it isn't here yet. Plan how you'll use it well.
