A bandit is a classic symbol of unrestrained sexuality. Dreams about bandits are especially prevalent in young males who are getting to know their sexuality. It’s a sign that they’re unnerved by the new strength and energy in themselves and don’t know how to control it, or that sexual urges have caused confusion or deviation. For example, a young man dreams that he’s a bandit who sneaks into his girlfriend’s bedroom to steal her panties. It symbolizes his inner conflict about taking her virginity and portraying himself as someone he’s not in order to get into her pants. A bandit can symbolize a state of anxiety or wariness. It can connect with fear of getting caught doing something wrong. It can symbolize someone or something that takes something valuable from you in the personal sense, such as your spouse or your nest egg. The symbolism of a bandit adds a swashbuckling and seductive dimension to that of a burglar or thief. Robin Hood, for example, is portrayed as a merry bandit.
