Dreaming of a Map

map, chart, road map · mostly positive

A map foretells a change in the works, new energy to move ahead, or the unexpected return of someone dear.

What happens in the dream

  • Studying a map: you will consider a change in business, with some letdowns but much profit
  • Looking for a map: sudden discontent will spur you to rise into better conditions
  • Looking over a map: a surprise visit from a dear friend far away, or the unexpected return of a loved one

How you felt

  • A need for direction: the dream may reflect a wish to know where you're headed
  • Wanderlust: it may express a longing for travel or change

Ask yourself

  • Where do I want to go, literally or otherwise?
  • Do I need a clearer plan?
