Dream about a city

A city is where the many hands of the world meet to trade and live together. This dream brings the attention of others to the way you manage your affairs among many people. You find yourself standing in the center of much activity, where the currents of trade and social connection pull at your sleeve.

The way you move through these spaces shows how you are advancing along your ongoing course. A city can feel as vast as a heavy blanket, and the weight of all those public dealings can sometimes press down on you. I have sat at my own table and felt the noise of the world pressing against the door, dear. You have the strength to walk these busy streets without losing your way.

When you are getting lost in a city, the dream shows a deepening confusion. This happens because the many paths of public life have become too tangled to follow, making it hard to find your way.

When you see a flooded city, the dream shows that the public world is overflowing. The waters rise to swallow the streets, and the usual ways of doing business are washed away.

A big city, whether you are being in a big city or simply seeing a big city, intensifies the sense of scale. The sheer size of the crowds and the buildings makes the public world feel even more vast and pressing.

You see the world from a great height in the dream of flying over a city. This view lets you look down on the smallness of things so that the whole truth of your situation becomes clear.

A city on fire marks a time when what you have gathered is taken away in a moment. The heat of a calamity can consume what you have built, leaving only the trial of what remains.

Moving to a new city shows you are stepping into a different season of your life. You are setting your feet upon a new path where your hands can do different work.
