Dreaming of Fighting
In short
What does dreaming of Fighting mean?
Dreaming of fighting means confronting what you refuse to acknowledge in yourself — the Shadow, the inner contradiction. Like Jacob wrestling with the Angel or Arjuna on the battlefield of the Bhagavad Gita, this combat is a path toward self-assertion and wholeness. Linked to Mars, Aries, Strength (VIII), and the Chariot (VII), it is the inner Jihad — the greater struggle.
Jungian interpretation
The battle with the Shadow — confronting what one refuses to see in oneself. Jacob wrestling with the Angel.
Freudian interpretation
The expression of repressed aggression. The conflict between the id and the superego made visible.
Esoteric meaning
