Dreaming of Walls
walls, barrier, rampart · mixed
A wall is an obstacle: getting over it, breaking through or building one means success; being blocked or falling means failure.
What happens in the dream
- Jumping over it: you will overcome obstacles
- Breaking through it: you will succeed through sheer persistence
- Knocking one down: you will defeat your enemies
- Building one: you will plan carefully and secure your fortune
- Walking along or climbing a wall: a risky venture that succeeds if you get down without falling
- Hiding behind a wall: connections you'll be ashamed to admit
- Squeezing between narrow walls: a quarrel you'll need care to get out of, then a settled, happy life
- A wall blocks your way: you will give in to bad influences and lose important battles
How you felt
- A sense of being blocked: the dream may reflect an obstacle, outer or inner
- A need for protection: a wall can also mean wanting a safe place
Ask yourself
- What obstacle is in front of me right now?
- Am I building walls to protect myself, or to hide?
