    The Meaning of Cars in Dreams


    In dreams cars are YOU and show you how you are getting through life. Depending upon the context of the dream, a car can symbolize our physical body, our mind, our ego (Freud's definition), our consciousness, our personality, and/or our life in general or the direction our life is taking currently. A car can also represent our social persona (Carl Jung)- who we are to others, also known as our social image or our social status. The context of car dreams shows us how much power and control we have (or believe we have) over our lives as well as how successful we are at moving from one stage of life to another.


    When analyzing a car dream, it is important to ask yourself the following questions about the context of the dream:


    Where are you? If you are sitting- which seat are you in? Sitting in the driver's seat shows you that are in the driver's seat in your life- you have control or attempt to. If someone else is in the driver's seat, it is possible this person or what they symbolize to you is controlling your life. Sitting in the passenger seat may mean you have a passive approach to life. Sitting in the backseat may mean you are taking a "backseat" in your life or specific situations. It is important to keep in mind that other people often do not symbolize themselves but rather an aspect within you that you identify with them (example, your angry aunt may symbolize your anger or your negative approach to something).
    How's the ride? How the car is riding often shows us how many obstacles and hardships we are experiencing. A bumpy ride, seeing rocks in the road or see other obstacles and dangers including traffic signs indicating danger show us what environment we are currently navigating through and how easy or hard we feel it has been to get through.
    How's the car? If the car is missing a tire or other important part-- what what is missing in your life that you need right now? Do you have a flat tire? If so, you may feel as though your life is going nowhere and you are stuck or stranded in your current situation. Was the car overheating? Dreaming of a car overheating could mean you are overheating and expending too much energy. You may need to slow down and may be at risk of burning out. You are taking on too much and may need to take a break and re-evaluate.
    Are there other cars around you? The other cars could symbolize others but are more likely symbolizing other aspects of who you are that are either unknown to you are repressed/ignored. If you know these people in real life, they could represent traits, behaviors, or feelings you associate with these people that you also possess or want to possess. Being in traffic could symbolize being crowded or overwhelmed.
    What color is the car? Colors can symbolize different things to different people but many colors have a general meaning to all. For more information, view the Dream Dictionary of Colors.
    How do you feel in the dream? Driving fast and experiencing a sensation of elation means something quite different then driving fast and experiencing a feelings of fear and panic.
