Husband

A 'Husband' in a dream represents the conscious mind in committed partnership with the subconscious mind -- an aspect committed to wholeness. In the Universal Language of the Mind, males represent the conscious mind -- the aggressive, outward-reaching, experiencecreating aspect of consciousness. A husband is a male who has entered into a formal, lifelong commitment with a female (the subconscious mind). This reflects the conscious mind's devotion to working in partnership with the inner self toward the completeness and wholeness of the total being. The word "husband" itself carries meaning. To husband something means to manage it carefully, to tend to it, to be a responsible steward of it. A husband in the dream language reflects the conscious mind taking responsibility for the care and stewardship of the entire inner partnership -- not dominating the subconscious mind, but honoring it, nurturing it, and working alongside it with commitment and integrity. Pay attention to what the husband is doing. Is he present and engaged, reflecting a conscious mind that is actively committed to the partnership? Is he absent, indicating that the conscious mind has abandoned its commitment to the inner self? Is he supportive, reflecting a healthy dynamic where the conscious mind supports and empowers the subconscious? Is there conflict, suggesting that the conscious mind's agenda is at odds with the subconscious mind's wisdom? When a husband shows up in your dream, assess the commitment your conscious mind has made to the wholeness of your being. Are you showing up as a good partner to your inner self? Are you taking responsibility for the stewardship of your entire consciousness? Or has your conscious mind been running off on its own agenda, ignoring the needs and wisdom of the subconscious? Recommit to the partnership. Wholeness requires the devoted cooperation of both halves.
