Dream About arch

Klaus Vollmar Interpretation: On one hand, a well-known symbol for security, protection, and home, as in Family and Anchor. On the other hand, it often points to restriction and confinement, as in Cage, Prison. From mythology we know about the practice of leaving an infant in a basket. Here it indicates a special child who has been abandoned or disowned, and in spite of a hostile world is making its way successfully.

A very specific point is being made here: it is possible to survive and overcome early childhood suffering.

Passing under an arch in a dream may symbolize a transition in your life — a move from one phase or stage to another. If you avoid walking under the arch, you could be resisting transition or change. Note the characteristics of the arch, whether it's adorned in any way, and whether other people are also passing through it. This will flesh out the symbol's meaning for you. An arch can also suggest you are opening up to new experiences.

Julia and Derek Parker Interpretation

Mythologically representing the arch of the sky, but in Indian myths thejwit or female genitals. In both senses protective, and in architecture suggestive of strength, support. Your dream arch may be symbolically expressing the range of your experience of life, from innocence to maturity. Or perhaps you are being protected from difficulties or the heavy burden of life - don’t forget we sometimes shelter ‘underneath the arches’. Does your dream arch say something about material security, or the security that comes from religious faith? Having had your dream do you now feel inspired in some way to carry on, because you feel more secure? Are you merely being arch?
