Wakefulness
If a person sees himself awake in a dream, this signifies that he observes the right path in the affairs with which he is occupied, continues in his undertakings, turns away from the things he deems ugly, and will have a long life.
If he sees that he awakens a sleeping man in a dream, this signifies that he will guide that man to the path of truth and righteousness.
Ibn Sīrīn: Seeing wakefulness in a dream signifies sharpness of mind, perseverance in attaining one’s goal, completing one’s work, turning away from a wrongful deed and repenting, or a long life. Awakening someone from his sleep in a dream indicates guiding him or showing him the right path.
