Dreaming of Cars
By far, one of the most common dreams is dreams of cars or vehicles. Most folks make the error of attempting to interpret these dreams from a literal standpoint.
This approach will most certainly give you a misleading interpretation. Just like a house in a dream, a car represents, for the most part, the life of someone. In this case, let's look at a few factors concerning car dreaming. The driver's seat of the vehicle always represents a place of control. So, if you dream that you're in a car but not in the driver's seat, the dream indicates that you are not in control. However, whoever is in the driver's seat is in control.
If your car or a car tire is flat in the dream, the dream indicates delay, setback, and hindrances in your life or someone's life. Let's say you're driving, and you decide you want to slow down or come to a stop, but you are pressing the brakes for some reason, but your vehicle would not stop. This indicates a lack of control or an inability to manage specific affairs in your life. Let's look at another scenario. You had a dream, and in this dream, you are driving, but someone is in the front passenger seat with you. Now, whoever is in that passenger seat represents an influence. So let's say the person in the passenger seat was your enemy, then the dream indicates that someone is challenging your control position.
In another scenario, let's say you dreamt of speeding or driving foolishly; then the dream indicates a reckless and selfish life, meaning you only care about yourself. Whether verbal or physical, dreaming about a car accident means clashing with others. What about having dreams where you are driving a convertible car? Driving a convertible suggests that you are uncovered, exposed, or vulnerable. It also indicates that something is left unattended in your life.
Dreaming of yourself reversing in a car indicates backwardness, not progressing. Dreams where your vehicle is not working, or your car cuts off while driving shows you are losing your zeal, which will also accompany frustration in your life. Dreaming of a red vehicle represents a passionate person while dreaming of a black car represents evil, lack, and negative life. Dreams of seeing your vehicle in the repair shop indicate health issues. What about having dreams of someone driving your car or something driving a car, but they're not visible? The dream suggests that a spirit is influencing you. Depending on this person's behavior, it will determine the type of spirit affecting you.
What about having dreams where you're racing with someone? The dream indicates that you or the person you're running is competitive. Are you having dreams of you driving a Jeep or heavy-duty truck? The dream suggests you are well prepared and equipped to handle whatever difficulties appear on your life journey. Have you ever had a dream wherein you were driving, but you ran out of gas? Such a dream indicates that you must prepare or pay attention to your resources. Have you had dreams where you saw your car or a vehicle overloaded? Such a dream suggests that you or that person are weighed down with troubles and problems, which will slow down their progress in life. Dreaming of riding around in a circle indicates that you are about to or currently experiencing the same situation all over again.
If you dream of someone or a wrecker towing your car, the dream indicates that you will receive assistance. Dreaming of a new car means a change for the better, a better life accompanied by new options and opportunities. On the other hand, depending on the car's age, dreaming of an old vehicle represents you being stuck in the past. It also indicates that you are irrelevant regarding where you're currently at in your life. The bottom line is that you need to upgrade yourself. Having dreams where you are positioned in the back seat of a car indicates submission. If the vehicle belongs to you, the dream shows you are out of control and in your assigned position.
In closing, one of the most important things to note in a dream concerning cars is sitting in the driver's seat of that car because the driver's seat always represents a control position. Therefore, if the vehicle in the dream belongs to you and your mother or friend is driving your car, the dream indicates that they control your life. However, if your husband is driving the family car, this is a good dream because it shows he's in the family's head position, which is where he should be. If the dream indicates that both of you have separate cars, but your husband or wife is driving your vehicle, the dream reveals a controlling spouse.
Again, One must remember that the interpretation of dream symbols is often shaped by an individual's cultural background, occupation, way of life, and faith. As such, it is of utmost importance to depend exclusively on the guidance and direction of the Holy Spirit when seeking to understand their meaning.
