Jumping can mean jumping from one situation, position, feeling, or thought to another. Elevating can mean gaining a better view. That association applies to the immediate concerns or obstacles in your life that prevent you from looking ahead into the future, or things about yourself you can’t see past. For example, you can’t see past your ambition and your marriage suffers because of it. See: Ankles, Body parts, Feet, Legs
