An interpretation of cliff dreams

An interpretation of cliff dreams

This interpretation is from ""The Dream Interpretation Dictionary: Symbols, Signs, and Meanings" and is provided by J.M. DeBord aka "RadOwl". He is the author of several acclaimed books about dreaming, the host of The Dreams That Shape Us podcast, and is a moderator of r/Dreams, one of the largest dream sharing communities on the internet. When you face a metaphorical cliff in your life, it means you face a tough climb, big risk, or important decision. It can mean an obstacle seems insurmountable. Standing across from someone on the other side of a cliff is the image of division, either within yourself or with another person or group of people. Connection is lacking. Communication is broken. Or it can mean you’ve created the personal distance necessary to feel safe. Climbing a cliff in a dream can have the same symbolism as “climb the mountain,” meaning you want to “reach the top.” Or it can compare to a perilous situation. One slip-up can lead to disaster. See: Climbing, Disasters Standing on a cliff edge suggests facing a big difficulty. It can mean living on the edge mentally or emotionally, or being close to taking a plunge into something like depression, illness, or a big decision like marriage or retirement. It can symbolize fear of taking the next step, or being on the verge of giving up. Being stuck on a cliff can symbolize a situation that isn’t getting any easier. You feel exposed, vulnerable, or abandoned. You need help. Jumping off a cliff can symbolize taking a risk or making a leap of faith. For an example dream, see: Horse. Falling off a cliff can symbolize despair or having no control over your life. It can mean you’re in free-fall. See: Abyss Landing safely and feeling good about it can symbolize a good decision. A bad landing can symbolize a bad decision, or a bad outcome is feared. Your confidence is rattled, so you stand at the edge looking down, unable to act. Cliffs are further associated with confidence—having it, or not—and thrill-seeking. For example, refusing to climb a cliff or to jump off one can symbolize lack of confidence in your abilities, or doubting where you’re going to end up after taking a risk.
