Hell
Inferno, Underworld
A dream of hell, with its flames, heat and sense of being stuck somewhere you don't belong, can feel intense, yet it's rarely about punishment. More often it comes from guilt, stress or a situation that feels unbearable right now, at work, at home or in your own thoughts. Escaping is a very positive turn: you're already climbing out of a hard place. If you were only visiting or watching, you may be judging yourself or someone else too harshly. Believer or not, ask yourself what needs to cool down.
