Ointment

'Ointment' in a dream represents thoughts that support healing and wholeness. Ointment is a topical medicine -- it is applied directly to a wound or irritation to soothe, heal, and restore. In the Universal Language of the Mind, this reflects specific thoughts that you are applying to an area of your consciousness that needs healing. Ointment does not heal the entire body. It is applied to a specific location. This reflects targeted healing -- specific, positive thoughts being directed at a particular area of pain or dis-ease within your mind. These are thoughts like "I am worthy," "I forgive myself," "I am capable of change," or "I deserve to be whole." When ointment shows up in your dream, it is reflecting the targeted healing work you are doing -- or need to do. Where is the wound? What thought pattern created the irritation? And what specific, healing thought can you apply to that area to restore wholeness? Healing is not passive -- it requires the active application of productive, life-affirming thoughts to the specific areas that are in pain.
