A caretaker looking after the helpless or ailing aspect of you; a healer, and therefore, a need for healing; a source of nourishment. Possibly you are feeling overwhelmed and need or wish you could give up some of your efforts for a little nursing.

This, the nurse can be a mother symbol. Being nursed can relate to a wish to return to less responsible times. Lack of eagerness for taking on new responsibilities; fears or anxiety about being helpless or incapacitated. If you are the nurse then your dream may be saying that you are ready to nurture yourself or to take on a service responsibility.
