Dreaming of Running
running · mixed
Running fast promises success, but stumbling or being unable to lift your feet warns of obstacles.
What happens in the dream
- You run fast: your ventures will succeed
- You are ill and dream of running: a good sign for recovery
- You try to run but can't lift your feet: something you badly want will be hard to achieve
- You stumble or fall: an accident or misfortune
- Others run while you stand still: disappointment
How you felt
- Urgency: the dream often reflects pressure to move fast
- Frustration: running without moving may echo a sense of powerlessness
Ask yourself
- What am I running toward right now?
- What's holding me back?
