Dr. Michael Lennox Interpretation

Universal Landscape: Movement on life’s path that is public or shared.

Dreaming Lens: Were you riding a bus? Were you driving one? What type of bus was it? Were you waiting for a bus? Had you missed your bus? Did the bus crash? Who else was on the bus with you? How did you feel about riding the bus?

Personal Focus: As with any mode of transportation, a bus connects with one’s path through life. When you ride a bus, you turn the reins of control over to another, take a seat and go along for the ride. Relinquishing the driver’s seat is an important point to examine, as your comfort level in the dream will help deepen your interpretation. Positive reactions to riding a bus may point to the well-being that can accompany letting go of control. A negative experience may point to resistance to such surrender.

Given that most bus rides are associated with public transportation, the symbolic meaning of your dream may connect to paths in your life that you share with others in your community. Consider who else was on your dream bus for clues to what area of your life is being illuminated.

The type of bus offers shades of meaning. A school bus may indicate regression to an earlier mentality, whereas a public transit bus could point to a need to follow a course that requires being patient with the paths of others. A private bus, such as a tour bus, may indicate levels of abundance and the need to gather large creative resources for future use. However, if the bus was used in place of a car, feelings of lack and limitation may be indicated. If you were not actually riding the bus in your dream, the meaning you give your interpretation should explore this. If this is a bus you should have been on, you might want to consider what obstacle or resistant thought is keeping you from moving more effectively on your life path.

Silvana Amar Interpretation

In order to interpret the dream with a bus ride in it, the dreamer should make associations in regard to buses.

The dream has very specific meaning depending on the individual’s experiences on school buses, public transportation vehicles, special family trips, etc. At times the content of the dream may be more important than the actual setting.

If the setting is secondary, then examine the other details of the dream more closely. However, if the bus and/or the bus ride was a focal point of the dream consider the value that it holds for you. Does this dream say something about your ability to fit in and join a group effort, project, or trip? Do you function well in group settings? Are you a leader or a follower in such situations, and what is your comfort level? This dream could also reflect a part of your life (or the journey of your life) which involved many other people who seemed to be on a same path. It could be your family, friends, schoolmates or co-workers.

Versatile - Anonymous Interpretation

A bus signifies that part of our life journey that we are able to undertake in the company of others. More public than private, we perhaps have a common aim with the people with whom we travel. Trouble with timetables, missing the bus, arriving too early, missing a connection all indicate we are not in control of our lives and perhaps should sit down and replan how we wish to continue.

Dreaming of getting on the wrong bus, or it going the wrong way, shows that there are conflicting aims or desires that need to be considered and we should listen to our own intuition. This is usually a warning of a wrong action, and we do not need to get carried away.

To dream of not being able to pay the fare signifies we do not have enough resources to set out on a particular course of action. It may be that we have not paid enough attention to detail. You may also like to consult the individual entry for bus.

Dr. Mıchael Lennox Interpretation

James R. Lewis and Evelyn Dorothy Oliver Interpretation

Because of our early experiences with school buses, as well as the widespread availability of buses as public transportation, buses can have a wide variety of individual associations. Also, buses may simply be stages for other kinds of dream scenarios (i.e., they do not necessarily have a symbolic meaning). In and of themselves, and especially in contrast to more individualized means of transportation such as automobiles, buses may represent collective action, or even going along with the crowd.

Astro Center Interpretation

Traveling by bus indicates that you are on the road to attaining your heart’s desire.

Waiting for a bus indicates frustrations ahead - obstacles on your path to success, love, fame, enlightenment, or whatever it is that you want the most. It can also be reassuring, however, in that it means that the frustrations will be temporary.

Being in an accident while riding on a bus indicates financial troubles ahead. Look to other symbols in the dream to discern how to avoid those troubles.

myjellybean Interpretation

To dream of a bus means you’ve been going along with the crowd and need to start acting on your own decisions.

Garuda Interpretation

Vision: The bus means that determination and ambition are the forces behind a need for advancement at work, particularly in a man’s dream. Riding on a bus: being satisfied but still too hung up on old points of view. Riding in a bus that’s going in the wrong direction: you are isolating too much. Depth Psychology: See Auto, Train, Trip, Truck.

Ariadne Green Interpretation

Chasing down a bus in a dream may reflect chasing after mainstream values. Riding on a bus may ask you to examine how much of your individuality you’re willing to give up in order to be one of the crowd. Taking the bus may indicate that you will not arrive at your true destination, as the bus may not take you to your door.

(Sec Airplane, Vchiclc.)

Theresa Cheung Interpretation

According to Jung, riding on any form of public transport suggests that you are being too conformist in your waking life.

Belter Greg Interpretation

Riding on a transit bus while sleeping is for a good reason. Some things you just can’t talk about, and must be kept secret, such as conveying messages about the people who’ve been visited on the bus ride. Unusual people have been visited on these rides. Small buses indicate short trips will be favorable. And a large vehicle may be favorable for long distances if the dream wasn’t turbulent.

Ian Wallace Interpretation

Ability to make progress toward my professional objectives by ensuring that my colleagues are heading in the same direction

Cathleen Connor Interpretation

Dreaming you are on a bus is similar to a car dream, except that you are with other people on a vehicle that makes stops along the way. A bus has a predetermined route and destination. When you dream you are on a bus, you know you will eventually reach your destination. However, you may be impatient with the stops and starts along the way and your inability to control the amount of time it takes to reach your destination. Buses also have fairly frequent schedules, so you always can catch the next bus if you miss the one you wanted. In that way, a bus speaks to the mundane, predictable nature of daily life. Notice other aspects of the dream, such as the luggage you're carrying, your destination, and what you're leaving behind.

Common Source

Buses in our dreams are significant symbols metaphoric to movement in our life, from one stop to another. The key motive behind the dreams is to bring attention to our movement, changes and direction of our life path. Our journey has its ups and downs, sometimes we miss the bus suggesting missed opportunities or not being ready to move to the next stop. These shortstops in life can be any type of movement that goes on with us. If you experience a bus crash might be the end of the direction you might be going. If you are driving the bus you will have more control over you destiny. If the bus loses control donates to a lack of direction in your life at the moment.
