Vomiting

This is an unpleasant entry with a straightforward reading, and it is searched often enough to deserve one. Almost no reports involve actual illness. What the image renders is rejection — the body refusing something that was taken in.

Getting rid of what was swallowed

The correspondence is forcible expulsion of something accepted earlier. The two halves both matter: it was taken in, and it is now being refused.

Reports cluster around situations the dreamer went along with and can no longer tolerate: a job accepted and now unbearable, an arrangement agreed under pressure, a family expectation absorbed for years, an explanation believed and now rejected.

The food entry supplies the other half of this. What is taken in there — work, relationships, what sustains — is what comes back up here.

And feeling better

The favourable form, and reported clearly. Dreamers describe relief that is disproportionate and unmistakable.

Correspondence is something harmful got rid of. Reports arrive after resignations, after ending relationships, after saying something long withheld, and after leaving households or beliefs the dreamer had been inside. Traditions that read this image as sickness miss the commonest report entirely.

Not being able to stop

The anxious form. The rejection continues past anything that could account for it.

Read as revulsion that has outgrown its occasion. Reports name sustained disgust with a situation the dreamer is still inside — a workplace culture, a political environment, a family dynamic. The dreams cluster in periods where nothing has changed and the tolerance has gone.

Dreamers describe exhaustion, and the reports resemble the crying entry’s inability-to-stop form more than they resemble illness.

What comes up

The detail dreamers remember precisely, and it is usually the entire reading.

Reports include objects, hair, coins, glass, insects, and things belonging to specific people. Where the object belongs to another entry, that entry carries the meaning — coins read with money, hair with the hair entry, glass with broken glass — and this one supplies only the fact of rejection.

Where it is something the dreamer recognises from their own life, they can generally name what it stands for without help.

Needing to and being unable

The most difficult form and read as the inverse of the entry. The dreamer knows what has to come out and it will not.

Correspondence is something taken in that cannot be got rid of: a decision that cannot be unmade, information that cannot be unlearned, a relationship that cannot be ended for practical reasons, guilt with no available confession. Reports come from people in genuinely closed situations.

In front of others

A social variant that belongs beside the naked entry. The rejection is public and the dreamer cannot control it.

Reports name people who lost composure where they could not afford to — crying in a meeting, saying something at a family gathering, a reaction that escaped in public. What is described is not the reaction but the witnesses.

Someone else being sick

A separate reading: the dreamer is caring rather than expelling. Reports name parents, carers and partners, and cluster around real illness in the household.

Where the dreamer is disgusted rather than caring, reports involve someone whose behaviour they can no longer tolerate, and dreamers usually name them.

Where it is illness

Worth stating plainly. People who are actually unwell, pregnant, or on medication that causes nausea dream about it for ordinary reasons, and no symbolic reading is required. The image only carries meaning when the waking body is not supplying the cause.

What to ask

Whether it helped. Relief and continuation are the two directions this image goes, and they correspond to opposite situations.
