Julia and Derek Parker Interpretation

Labyrinths or mazes played an important part in ancient myth and legend: they have an air of mystery, set a problem, hold out the promise of treasure at their centre - but sometimes also of threat. The most famous labyrinth was that which Theseus explored, with a maiden-eating monster at its heart. Over the centuries, the symbol became an extremely complicated one: a labyrinth could represent the life of man; a mystery few' could master - or could simply be a complex game. Again, it could represent a path from which no one could escape, leading in a convoluted way to one central goal - or it could be a puzzle which took wit and immense patience to unravel. A dream of a labyrinth seems most likely to mirror uncertainty and perplexity in waking life — some puzzle which confronts you (it may be one of which you are unconscious: a situation could be much more complicated than you think). Think about your attitude, in the dream: were you confident of finding your way, or merely wandering in complete perplexity? What was at the centre of your maze: were you being forced towards an uncertain or even dreadful fate, or sure that some kind of reward awaited you? Were you trying to break out of a predetermined path, or following it slavishly? Did you carry some kind of a map? And if so, was it accurate or misleading? All these attitudes no doubt comment on whatever problem you are facing in your waking life.

Julie Gillentine Interpretation

Symbolizes walking the path of a quest. What are the circumstances? How do you feel? Arc you lost, wandering afraid? Are you confident of the outcome?
