Evacuation
Being evacuated, Evacuating, Emergency evacuation
Sirens, a knock on the door and a few minutes to grab what you can: evacuation dreams revolve around sudden change and quick decisions. They often appear when life asks you to leave a familiar situation faster than you'd planned, or when your plans have been disrupted. If you had to leave without knowing why, choices that affect you may be getting made over your head. If the evacuation was orderly and nobody panicked, you're better prepared for change than you think.
