Elephant
Elephants represent wisdom, long memory, patience, and gentle strength. In Hindu tradition, the elephant-headed god Ganesha is the remover of obstacles. Dreaming of elephants may suggest you need to remember something important, exercise patience, or draw on deep reserves of inner strength.
Garden
Gardens represent the cultivated aspects of your psyche — the parts you've consciously nurtured and grown. A beautiful garden suggests inner peace, creativity, and personal growth. A neglected garden may indicate aspects of yourself you've been ignoring. Planting seeds represents new intentions, while harvesting represents reaping the rewards of your efforts.
