Dream Symbol · Universal Language of Mind
Acknowledgment of ones true identity / Acknowledgment of ones ability to reach their goals
A 'License' in a dream represents the acknowledgment of your true identity and your ability to reach your goals. A license is an official document that verifies two things: who you are (identity) and what you are qualified to do (ability). A driver's license confirms your identity and certifies that you have the skill to operate a vehicle. In the Universal Language of the Mind, a license reflects the recognition -- either by yourself or by an aspect of your consciousness -- that you are who you say you are and that you are capable of reaching where you want to go. This is a powerful symbol because it addresses both identity and capability simultaneously. Many people struggle with one or both. They do not know who they truly are (identity crisis), or they do not believe they are capable of achieving their goals (self-doubt). A license appearing in your dream is a direct affirmation -- or a direct challenge -- to both. Pay attention to the condition and context of the license. Is it valid and current, reflecting a clear, accepted sense of identity and capability? Is it expired, suggesting that your understanding of who you are and what you can do needs to be updated -- you have evolved beyond your old self-concept? Is it lost, indicating that you have misplaced your sense of identity? Is it being examined by someone else, reflecting that an aspect of yourself is verifying your credentials? When a license shows up in your dream, it is calling for you to claim your identity and your capability with full confidence. You are who the Real Self says you are -- not who your ego,
your fears, or the world has told you to be. And you are capable of reaching every goal your soul has set for itself. The license has been issued. Carry it with confidence.
