Dreaming of a Hill

Messages
Dreaming of a hill is a about a rise that has to be climbed and is not a mountain. In the psyche, this is the ordinary difficulty, the effort that everybody makes and nobody celebrates, and its appearance means that a question of what you have been working up has arrived. Something is uphill. If it was steady, ask what long ordinary difficulty you have been proceeding through. If it had no summit in sight, examine what has been going on for longer than you expected. If it was only a hill, notice what an ordinary effort actually costs. Nobody is praised for climbing a hill. This dream asks what you have been working up.
There is a false summit in this that everybody meets. You get to the top and there is more. If you arrived and it was not the end, ask what you have completed and discovered was not the finish. If you had used everything, examine what a person has left after arriving somewhere that was not the arrival. If it happened repeatedly, notice how completely a hope can be spent. If you kept going, the dream may be describing a resilience that nobody sees. Whatever looks like the top is very often not. The dream asks what you thought was the end.
There is a descent on the other side that nobody thinks about. This goes down too. If you got over it, ask what has become easy after a long effort. If you ran down, examine what has been given back to you. If you could not stop, notice what a descent does after a climb. If it was harder than the way up, the dream may be describing something nobody warns anybody about. Whatever goes up has another side. The dream asks what is on the other side.
There is a view from here that is modest and real. You can see a little further. If it was not much, ask what small perspective you have gained. If it was enough, examine what an ordinary elevation actually provides. If you could see where you came from, notice what has been made visible. If it was worth the climb, the dream may be describing exactly what most achievements amount to. Whatever a hill gives you is a hill's worth. The dream asks what you can see from here.
Dreaming of a Hill That Never Ends
Dreaming of a rise with no summit names an ordinary difficulty that has become a life. It keeps going up. If you had been climbing for years, ask what has been uphill for so long that you have forgotten level ground. If there was no top, examine what has been made endless. If everybody else had arrived, notice what makes you the one still climbing. If you stopped, the dream may be describing an exhaustion that has finally won. Whatever has no summit is not a hill. The dream asks what has been going up forever.
Dreaming of Rolling Down a Hill
Dreaming of a descent you are not controlling names a fall down something you had climbed. You are going down. If you could not stop, ask what has been undone all at once. If you lost everything you had gained, examine what a single loss of footing has cost. If it did not hurt, notice how a fall can be less than the fear of it. If you laughed, the dream may be describing a freedom in a loss of control. Whatever rolls down loses all the height. The dream asks what you have lost.
Dreaming of Standing on a Hill
Dreaming of an arrival at a modest height names an elevation you have earned. You are on top. If nobody was watching, ask what you have accomplished that nobody knows about. If you could see the way you came, examine what has become visible about your own route. If it was enough, notice what a modest achievement actually provides. If you sat down, the dream may be describing a rest you have earned. Whoever stands on a hill has climbed it. The dream asks what you have come up.
Dreaming of a Hill You Cannot Climb
Dreaming of an ordinary difficulty that defeats you names an effort that everybody makes and you cannot. It will not be climbed. If everybody else got up, ask what makes you the one who cannot manage the ordinary thing. If you kept slipping, examine what has been failing under you. If nobody would help, notice what it is to be defeated by something small. If you found another way, the dream may be describing an ingenuity that was forced on you. Whatever defeats you on a hill defeats you. The dream asks what ordinary thing you cannot do.
