This
is an interesting twist to the very frequent exam dream. Just
about everyone has an exam dream, and it usually has to do
with feeling unprepared for something in waking life, anxiety
over work and career. Portia's dream, however, shows that
her fear is one of interpretation and communication. Or she
feels like she doesn't have the right tools to work with sometimes.
She might be afraid she can't "get it right." A
debilitating fear, usually, because trying to always get everything
right leads us inevitably to feelings of inadequacy and guilt.
Both are no good for the self-esteem! We can't possibly get
it right all the time, and who says we need to live up to
other peoples' standards anyway?
