An interpretation of journey 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. As with other symbolism, when considering what a journey in a dream can mean, think about how it’s used to compare with situations in life, and explain it in simplest terms. A journey is an act of traveling from one place to another. In our lives we “go places.” We have destinations to reach and landmarks to mark our progress. We journey from one point to the next—from high school to college and job training, from college to career, from marriage to children. A close friendship is comparable to a journey because you share major events and landmarks of your lives together. A major project can be like a journey. A career can be a journey. You can dream about a journey when your life goes off in a new direction. Oftentimes it marks the beginning of something new and exciting, but also consider that changes in your life can slow you down. For example, you reach an age when you can’t get around as you used to, you retire, or your children leave home. These situations are the beginning of new journeys in life. See: Embarking Life itself is a journey, and the pace shows in how you travel: jet, boat, car, train. See below. The journey of life can be summarized as developing your ego, your unique identity, then reintegrating it with the unconscious mind.
