The Threshold of Defense

Practical reading

You may be facing a situation where you need to assert yourself against unreasonable expectations or criticism. The dream urges you to define your boundaries clearly.

Psychology explanation

The defense mechanism is highly active. The dream is rehearsing your need to stand up for your values and personal space, rehearsing the strength required to hold firm against pressure.
