It can mean you’re looking for personal direction; you’re not sure about the best direction to go in your life. Giving directions can mean helping someone with a goal, problem, or issue. The symbolism of a map can be used in the sense of “map out” a big project. It can mean you are being careful in plotting something, the next steps to take. You “map out” where you are going in your life or an area of it such as your career, living situation, finances, or family. For example, see: Old Friend.
