Adoption
Accepting a new role, a foreign idea, or taking responsibility for the unknown.
Dream interpretation
Adoption in a dream symbolizes the conscious choice to care for something that did not originate in your family environment—a new job, cause, or belief. You are choosing to add a new dimension to your life. If you are the one being adopted, it reflects a need for belonging and a search for roots or stronger support. This dream speaks of a big heart and a desire to integrate new aspects into the personality. It is a symbol of altruism and the ability to love unconditionally, transcending biological ties.
