Awesome Rastafarian (5)
I believe the answer is:
dread
I believe this is a double definition.
'awesome' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'rastafarian' is the second definition.
(someone with dreadlocks eg a Rasatafarian)
(Other definitions for dread that I've seen before include "Enormous apprehension" , "Dared to fear greatly" , "Hairstyle" , "quail" , "Be very averse to" .)
