Dreaming of a Fortress

fortress, citadel, stronghold · mixed

Being shut in a fortress means others will hamper your plans; locking others in means power and gain.

What happens in the dream

  • You confine others there: an ability to take charge, and valuable goods that will enrich you
  • You are confined in a fortress: enemies will put you in an awkward spot and others will weigh on your plans

How you felt

  • Confinement: the dream may reflect feeling hemmed in by others
  • Control: it may show a need to keep a grip on those around you

Ask yourself

  • Who has too much say over my choices?
  • Am I trying to control everything?
