Your life is usually in a continual state of construction, and dreams show that figurative sense of the word as literal. Think of construction as a physical representation. Construction can mean that your life or an area of it is built up or expanded—outer life or inner life. For example, when having a child you might dream about adding a room onto your house. When expanding your beliefs you might dream about building a church or garden. When expanding your mind you might dream about adding shelves to a library or buildings to a university—a way of saying that your personal universe is expanding. See: Buildings Constructing a road can symbolize “making inroads,” meaning making progress or building a mental or emotional connection with a person. Alternately, in can symbolize the road of life, and building it suggests creating your own path or doing things your own way, or blazing a new trail. Building a bridge can mean bridging a gap. See: Bridges, Highways, Roads To really grasp this use of the symbolism, think of the ways construction can be used as a metaphor for building your life and your mind. What is your foundation? Your self-respect, values, morals, ethics, principles, fortitude, inner strength, health. What protects you like a roof or walls? Personal boundaries, psychological and emotional defenses, ability to make money, thinking and reason, knowledge and information. Your psyche is like a neighborhood and the structures in a psyche are the buildings and monuments of that neighborhood. That’s why when a person leaves the past behind and goes through big changes, it’s common to dream about his or her old neighborhood being demolished or attacked. See: Neighbors The idea of construction extends further to include constructing an argument and similar sorts of mental constructs.
