dreamnotary
/ˈdriːmˌnəʊtəri/nounVerified NewAlso in: Traumnotar (Deutsch) · sueñonotario (Español) · rêvenotaire (Français)
The mental official who stamps a dream's events as authentic, certifying "this really happened" before the waking mind can object.
The dreamnotary is why dream betrayals sting and dream reunions comfort: the paperwork is in order, the seal is raised, the signature is yours. The office works nights only, and its certifications are honored by the emotions long after the waking mind has revoked them.
Etym. — dream + notary — the bureaucratic metaphor for the mind's authenticity stamp; a notary is precisely the official who certifies that a thing is what it claims to be.
