Among Hindus, a golden lotus represents the preexistent matter of the Universe. On the dream plane, this symbolizes untapped potential just waiting for your attention.

An alternative emblem for the sun. In Egypt, the Mother Goddess was called the lotus who gave birth to the sun.

In China, a golden lotus embodies a soul’s mystical quest, which is very similar to the more Western idea of the quest for the holy grail.

In India, this flower is sacred to Lakshmi, the goddess of good fortune. As such, it foretells better luck on the horizon.
