The wound heals in-dream. The psyche is already drafting recovery; resilience footage.

  1. Find the bitten spot. Hand = work and agency; foot = direction; face = image; chest = heart. The body maps the domain.
  2. Venom or no venom? Lingering poison reads as a toxic influence still circulating; a clean bite as a sharp but finished lesson.

  5. One waking candidate. Name the most recent sharp, close-range hurt — the dream rarely needs two.
