dreamlighthouse
/ˈdriːmˌlaɪthaʊs/nounVerified NewAlso in: Traumleuchtturm (Deutsch) · sueñofaro (Español) · rêvephare (Français)
The fixed point in a recurring dream — the one landmark that never changes, by which the dreamer knows where they are.
The dreamlighthouse is the staircase that is always there, the door that is always blue, the figure who always stands at the corner. Recurring dreamers navigate by it: the plot varies, the weather varies, but the light is fixed, and its constancy is the only proof that the country is the same.
Etym. — dream + lighthouse — the navigation metaphor for the recurring dream's fixed point; a lighthouse is exactly the fixed light by which a navigator knows the coast.
Rel. — dreamgeography
