If you are the recipient of adulation in a dream, it can mean that you are seeking recognition in waking life.
You may feel that your accomplishments have gone unrewarded, or that other people are reaping the benefits of your hard work.
If you dream that you are giving someone adulation, your dream could be providing you with information about what you truly need or desire.
Think about the qualities of the person you are offering your adulation to.
Do you need to develop any of these qualities in yourself?
