Bridge

Meaning & Interpretation

Bridges in dreams symbolise transitions: from one life phase to the next, from one decision to another, from the past into the future. They connect two banks — two states between which you find yourself.

Walking safely across a bridge represents trust in one's own transition and the willingness to step into the new. A swaying or collapsing bridge shows uncertainty about an upcoming transition or fear of change.

Passing under the bridge or swimming beneath it carries a different meaning: it can indicate circumventing decisions or symbolise the journey through the unconscious (the water below).
