What does dreaming about crown mean in the Bible?

Reward promised to those who persevere

Crowns in the New Testament are promises: the crown of life for those who persevere under trial, the crown of righteousness for all who long for His appearing, the unfading crown of glory from the Chief Shepherd. A crown dream may be an encouragement — endurance now is not unseen. In the SoulGuide Dream Guide, crown is filed under objects — one of 54 symbols in the guide — and is answered with 3 King James Version passages quoted in full: James 1:12, 2 Timothy 4:8, 1 Peter 5:4. Each passage below carries a short note explaining why it applies to crown, so the entry can be read on its own without the rest of the guide.
