A dream in which you see yourself as a child—often with a strong emotional response.
An encounter with one's child image is direct contact with the Inner Child: the part of the psyche that stores early experiences, innocence, and also unhealed wounds. This is one of the most personal and emotionally charged archetypal images.
Tenderness, sadness, sometimes a protective impulse
Often arrives in periods of emotional therapeutic work, stress, or the activation of childhood themes. Perhaps this child is you as you were, and they currently need exactly the attention that you can give yourself as an adult.
Write a short letter to yourself at that age—what would you want them to hear right now.
