Dream symbol: late
late, later, latest

Interpretation:
Being inadequately prepared for something
Not taking something seriously enough, being too causal about it
Anxiety about a forthcoming event or project
Allowing something to deteriorate too far before attempting to correct it, too little too late
A late starter, a late bloomer
For women, being late may imply pregnancy
Needing to shelve something for a while and revisit it later
Something that is fresh, hot off the press, the latest
