Family reunion

Reunion, Family gathering, Family get-together

Picnic tables, matching T-shirts, relatives you see once a year: the family reunion is a classic American summer scene, and in dreams it gathers your roots in one place. Such dreams often come when you're thinking about your family background, how you fit in or who you've drifted away from. A happy reunion speaks of belonging and support across generations. Awkward moments or old tensions point to family matters you'd like to settle. Seeing relatives who have passed on, sitting among everyone else, can be a comforting reminder of everything they gave the family.

Dream variations

• Meeting relatives you don't recognizeYou're curious about parts of your family story you never heard. Ask an older relative to share some memories.
• Being left off the guest listYou worry about not belonging. Reach out first; many people are waiting for someone else to make the call.
• Hosting the reunionYou're the one who holds people together. Make sure someone else carries some of the load.
• Posing for the family photoYou want to capture a moment of togetherness. Make time this year for the people in that picture.
