Dreaming About Sun
What it means
The sun usually stands for vitality, clarity, and hope — a good season arriving or a truth coming to light. A rising sun often marks a fresh start; a setting one, something gently ending.
In more detail
Warm light on your skin tends to mirror confidence and well-being returning. A sun hidden behind clouds can reflect hope you can sense but not yet feel. Either way, this is one of the kindest symbols a dream can offer.
