Driving

Universal Landscape: Your movement on your path in life.

Dreaming Lens: Were you driving or was someone else? Were you in control of the car? Were you in the proper seat? Were you speeding, slowing, or stopped? Were you comfortable or was panic setting in? Were you responsible for anyone else, such as passengers or pedestrians?

Personal Focus: As a culture, we are dependent upon our cars. They take us where we need to go in our lives with such regularity that they hold the symbolic meaning of how we are moving on our paths through life. The circumstances around the car and the driving experience will identify for you what emotional and psychic challenges are surrounding you at this time.

If you are driving out of control in the dream, you must consider what area of your life might be beyond your ability to regulate. If you are in the back seat and need to gain control of the car, look for ways in which you haven’t yet stepped up to the plate. You may not be able to do so yet because of circumstances beyond your control. If your car isn’t responding to you, you may be feeling ineffectual about taking charge of some path you are traversing. Varying speeds might be reflecting movement in life that feels either too fast or too slow for your comfort.

A vehicle other than a car might point to being in foreign territory. You may not be feeling confident in your ability to work with the circumstances you have been handed. Causing an accident could be an invitation to look at the consequences of your choices. Being an accident victim might encourage you to look at ways in which you have abandoned your own direction because of another person or outside force beyond your control. Driving in the rain connects emotional issues to your current route. Icy conditions indicate that emotions are being frozen over, making your way treacherous. Down or up a hill would illustrate the sense of effort or ease involved in your life movement.

Driving

Driving a vehicle can represent how you “run your life,” or did in the past.

Driving well can represent taking charge of your life, making good decisions, or staying on track.

Crashing can represent a feeling or fear of a disaster or inability to handle things in your life.

A driver other than yourself can represent an authority figure or someone you’ve allowed to make decisions for you; someone who was in charge of a certain process that’s represented by the vehicle’s movement (such as the leader of your project team, or your friend who took you to dinner).
