Dreaming of door

Read two ways. Let them disagree, the truth often sits between.

Artemidorus · Oneirocritica

Drawn up, it speaks of An open door welcomes a guest, sometimes news, sometimes a stranger who will become a friend.

Drawn down, it warns of A door that will not open denotes a hindrance in business, or a love proposal refused.

Jungian · the collective unconscious

Drawn up, it speaks of The threshold-symbol. An open door is the invitation into a new psychic phase.

Drawn down, it warns of A door that will not open is resistance, but also a signal that the timing is not yet right.

When it appears with another

Door in company

  • door + key

    The classic threshold dream. The specific tool to open the specific way. Whatever you have been trying to access is now reachable; take it.

  • door + dog

    Loyalty at the threshold. A faithful instinctual self is guarding a passage. If the dog welcomes you in, the entry is sanctioned.

Did you dream this?

Keep it before it fades

Write the dream down in your journal and the cards will name its symbols for you, or have the whole dream read in full.
