Dream Symbol: Road

A sense of direction; your life’s path. Its condition and the ease or difficulty you have traversing it may reveal how much you feel in charge of your life or provide clues to changes you need to make. If beside the road or having difficulty getting on it, how have you gotten sidetracked? Consider your mode of travel.
Emphasis on the middle of the road suggests feelings regarding your adequacy or taking an neutral stand with its associated feelings. Are you wavering about or have not yet made a decision? A fork in the road may refer to an impending decision or choice. A curve may refer to new events or changes and their associated anxiety, especially if you cannot see what is ahead, but it can also refer to middle or old age and your feelings about rounding the bend. Back roads may refer to an alternative way of life or to a need to explore or return to old or more traditional ways. Any road not taken may represent a missed choice. Look at the names of the roads.
