To dream of an abbot represents a powerful male in your life, usually a father figure given to displays of authority. Dreaming that you are ‘less than’ the abbot may indicate a lack of confidence in your life and emotional/spiritual suppression possibly connected to your relationship with your own father. Dreaming that you are equal to or more powerful than the abbot this indicates a willingness to take action in your life, changing an old habit to grow in confidence and embracing more of who you truly are.
