Dreaming of becoming a prince or princesses reveals a desire for primacy, triumph, and conquest of personal values. For this reason, it is a common dream among young people because it shows the dreamer’s emerging (not yet materialized) ambitions and aspirations.

It represents courage, strength, and intelligence, in the male version; and tenderness as well as beauty, in women. Common to both is a strong talent to love with devotion and fidelity.

Are you dedicated to service, or do you feel that the world owes you a living?
