Dreaming of Bridge
In short
What does dreaming of Bridge mean?
A transition between two states of consciousness or of life, and a decisive crossing from one bank to the other.
Jungian interpretation
The archetype of passage: joining two banks of yourself, the old and the new self, the conscious and the unconscious. Crossing a bridge means accepting a rite of passage and an irreversible transformation.
Freudian interpretation
The wish to move from one psychic state to another, usually tied to a difficult decision or a dreaded life change. The bridge also figures the connection between two bodies.
Esoteric meaning
Linked to Gemini (the messenger between worlds) and Arcana VI (The Lovers) — the choice at the crossroads. The Norse Bifröst joining humans and gods, As-Sirat in Islamic eschatology, the Zoroastrian Chinvat.
