What It Can Point To
- Base symbol: independence, secrecy, intuition, comfort, or suspicion.
- Modifier meaning: Privacy, comfort, and intimacy are mixed.
- Check ordinary causes first: stress, grief, memory, illness, conflict, media, alcohol, medication, or bad sleep.
- A repeated modifier matters more than one strange image after a difficult day.

Before You Decide
Read the ordinary cause first. Then read the pattern. If you skip the ordinary cause, you will scare yourself and call it intuition. I do not work that way.
Do not turn a cat dream into superstition. Color is less important than action, mood, and context. One dream detail is not proof against another person and not a command to act.
