A Dictionary of Dream Symbols
by Eric Ackroyd(1) Height may symbolize level of achievement.
(2) The greater the height, the more panoramic the view. Are you getting your personal problem(s) in perspective; taking a more detached, less emotional view of things?
(3) The symbolism may be that of‘ascension’ or ‘resurrection’ - that is, transcending your present or former self towards a new and richer state of being.
(4) Are you afraid - in your dream - of falling? This probably represents either fear of failure; or a warning that ‘pride comes before a fall’, and that you should not strive for what is beyond your reach, because it is not appropriate to your real nature. Concentrate instead on self-discovery, so that your endeavours will be in tune with the fundamental structure of your individual psyche.
