Dream Meanings and Dream Interpretation
by Dream Meanings Anonymous
To dream of a cul-de-sac or dead-end, infers the dreamer is demonstrating resistance toward change. However, it can also mean the dreamer has reached a state of helplessness and powerlessness in their life’s journey and that it has now meant they have become trapped and directionless.
