Forgetting something
Forgetting, Forgot something, Forgetting something important
The sudden drop in your stomach when you realize you've forgotten something, whether it's a bag, a date, a name or a whole task, is a feeling almost everyone knows from dreams. These dreams often show that you're carrying a lot in your head and fear something will slip. They can also point to a duty you've been avoiding, or something important you've pushed to the back of the line. What you forgot is the best clue: a forgotten person hints at a relationship needing attention, an object at practical worries, and a skill at shaken confidence.
