Fog

Not-knowing, transition, the softening of what is sure.

CelticJungian

Fog in dreams is uncertainty rendered atmospheric. Celtic tradition treats fog as the natural weather of the otherworld: when mist rolls in, you may have stepped into faery territory. Jungian analysis reads fog-dreams as the psyche acknowledging that current decisions cannot be made by clarity alone. A dream in which you walk through fog and keep walking is a good omen — the psyche has learned to move without visual certainty. A dream in which fog lifts to reveal a figure or a landscape suggests a truth coming into focus. Notice the color of the fog and whether you hear voices within it.
