I am sitting in a circle with more men than women. It is some kind of affair. It's a morning service. I don't know these people though in the dream we seem to be acquainted.
I am waiting and waiting for the service to begin. Like let's finish this and get on with it. 10 minutes pass. Why isn't this guy who calls himself a rabbi start the service?
Finally, I speak up and ask why the service is not beginning. Now he feels the pressure so he begins.....but he is not singing! Neither is anyone else. They are all looking my way as if I am going to lead them in the prayer!! It is like expected that because I was the one who asked for it to begin and because people know my family background that I should know the prayers. But I don't!!
I move my seat back a little so I am blocked by the rabbi's view. He is sitting about 4 people away from me to my right around the circle, so it's easy for me to back my chair up slightly and be blocked.
Then the men all start singing. The pressure is off.
Note* In the "Saying goodbye" dream a few days ago, there is also a prayer scene where people are looking to me to know the prayer and I don't. Seems to be a theme where I am being expected to know things I sort of know, but don't feel completely confident. But the show seems to move along regardless.

At times it is synonymous with the circumference, just as the circumference is often equated with circular movement. But although its general meaning
embraces both aspects, there are some further details which it is important to
emphasize. The circle or disk is, very frequently, an emblem of the sun (and
indisputably so when it is surrounded by rays). It also bears a certain relationship
to the number ten (symbolizing the return to unity from multiplicity) (49), when
it comes to stand for heaven and perfection (4) and sometimes eternity as well
(20). There are profound psychological implications in this particular concept of
perfection. As Jung observes, the square, representing the lowest of the composite and factorial numbers, symbolizes the pluralist state of man who has not
achieved inner unity (perfection) whilst the circle would correspond to this ultimate state of Oneness. The octagon is the intermediate state between the square
and the circle. Representations of the relationship between the circle and the square are very common in the universal and spiritual world of morphology,
notably in the mandalas of India and Tibet and in Chinese emblems. Indeed,
according to Chochod, in China, activity, or the masculine principle (Yang), is
represented by a white circle (depicting heaven), whereas passivity, the feminine
principle (Yin) is denoted by a black square (portraying earth). The white circle
stands for energy and celestial influences and the black square for telluric forces.
The interaction implicit in dualism is represented by the famous symbol of the Yang-Yin, a circle divided into two equal sections by a sigmoid line across the
diameter, the white section (Yang) having a black spot within it, and the black
(Yin) a white spot. These two spots signify that there is always something of the
feminine in the masculine and something of the masculine in the feminine. The
sigmoid line is a symbol of the movement of communication and serves the
purpose of implying—like the swastika—the idea of rotation, so imparting a
dynamic and complementary character to this bipartite symbol. The law of polarity has been, the subject of much thought among Chinese philosophers, who
have deduced from this bipolar symbol a series of principles of unquestionable
value, which we here transcribe: (a) the quantity of energy distributed throughout
the universe is invariable; (b) it consists of the sum of two equal amounts of
energy, one positive and active in kind and the other negative and passive; (c) the
nature of cosmic phenomena is characterized by the varying proportions of the
two modes of energy involved in their creation. In the twelve months of the year,
for example, there is a given quantity of energy drawn from six parts of Yang and
six of Yin, in varying proportions (13). We must also point to the relationship
between the circle and the sphere, which is a symbol of the All.
