Depth Psychology: A prince stands for masculinity, knowledge, and intellect: you are either looking for such a man, or you could nurture these qualities in yourself. Dreaming about a princess: you might be repressing, maybe unconsciously, your feminine side, your compassion, and your feelings in general.

These figures represent those parts of ourselves, or others, who exist by right; that is, those aspects that have been brought into conscious awareness and authority. As the hero has taken responsibility for his own journey, so the prince and princess take responsibility for the lives they live. Also consult the entry for camelot.
The prince and princess are symbolic of young people who may or may not be related to the dreamer.
