Saint
Saints, Patron saint, Meeting a saint
Saints are men and women remembered in Christian tradition for unusual goodness, courage or devotion, and Catholics, Orthodox Christians and Anglicans still honor them with feast days, names and prayers. Many have a special role, like Francis with animals or Christopher with travelers. Meeting a saint while you dream can feel like being close to an example worth following. Sometimes it shows up when you feel held to a very high standard, as if you're expected to be endlessly patient and kind. If you were drawn to a particular saint, what they're known for may be what you're looking for right now.
