Egypt

Egypt, at the north-east corner of Africa on the Mediterranean Sea, is bordered on the west by Libya, on the south by the Sudan, and on the east by the Red Sea and Israel. Egypt is divided into two unequal, extremely arid regions by the landscape’s dominant feature, the northward-flowing river Nile. In dreams, Egypt is generally a sign of the spiritual life and conveys a spiritually related message of some kind. It can also suggest a yearning to learn more about human history.

1- Although perhaps less so now, as travel becomes easier, faraway places in dreams usually signify the exotic. Egypt in particular is always seen as magical or connected with ancient knowledge, though this may depend on the dreamer’s own knowledge of the country.

We are connecting with the magical and strange part of ourselves.

Egypt is a recognition of the hidden side of Self: the mysterious.

(Ancient)

The meaning of a dream about ancient Egypt partly depends on one’s conscious associations. Because of biblical associations, it can symbolize the material as opposed to the spiritual life. Otherwise, Egypt can symbolize ancient wisdom. Additionally, because we usually think of the pyramids as mausoleums, a dream about Egypt can represent the unconscious mind.
