Dream Symbol: divider

divider

A wall, fence, or other divider or barrier could have many different meanings, so consider its context and how you feel about it. Some possibilities are:

  • An obstacle or challenge
  • Something that keeps two people apart, such as a disagreement or being in different locations
  • Protection, separation, or an attempt to distance from another person or situation (as in "putting walls up")
  • An attempt to keep things out, or keep things in, contained, or controlled
  • A wall in a house can represent separation between the different parts of your life (for example, a house with no interior walls could mean you feel you have no boundaries between your work life, home life, and family life, etc.)

Tips to Understand Dream Meaning

Dream symbol meanings are different for each person. It's IMPORTANT to consider:

  • Personal meaning - What the dream symbol means to you, what it reminds you of, how it makes you feel.
  • Context - How the dream symbol appears in the dream. For example, in a dream about a bee - what was the bee doing, how and where it was doing it, and how did you feel about it?
  • Look beyond the obvious - A dream is often about something other than its obvious meaning. Physical events in the dream commonly represent mental or emotional matters.
