Observing the Waiting Period

If a woman dreams that she is observing the waiting period (`iddah), it signifies sorrow, distress, straitness, illness, or a divorce that necessitates observing the waiting period.

It provides early awareness; the person sees risks before they grow and can choose a more solid path.

Neglect, haste, untrustworthy people or uncontrolled behavior can increase the difficulty.

In the interpretation, the themes of inner world and awareness, health and body, the emotional tone in the dream, and how the symbol concludes in the dream should be evaluated together.
