Personal Reflection

Analyze your mountain dream by considering:

• Were you climbing, at the top, or at the base?
• How did the climb feel—challenging, exhilarating, impossible?
• Was the mountain beautiful, threatening, or neutral?
• Were you alone or with others?

Mountain dreams often appear when you’re facing significant challenges or working toward important goals. The dream reflects not just the challenge itself, but your attitude and approach to it.
