The Dream Book of Self-Knowledge
- in a temple or church is a representative of the emotional level and thus the emotional animus; if his influence leads to an understanding of divine experiences, the preacher can even be a representative of the Wise Old Man archetype.
- shows moral transgressions, dependencies and the dreamer's negative character traits; if the dreamer surmises his mistakes from the preacher's words, then he is poised to gradually eliminate from his life the traits that prevent knowledge.
- for a similar symbol see Priest.
