JUMPING

1- The act of jumping can be somewhat ambiguous in a dream. It can indicate either jumping up attempting to attain something better for ourselves or jumping down, which can mean going down into the unconscious and those parts of ourselves where we may feel we are in danger. Jumping on the spot can indicate joy and has the same significance as dance (See Dance).

2- Repetitive movement of any sort in a dream usually indicates the need to reconsider our actions, to look at what we arc doing and perhaps to express ourselves in a different way. On a psychological level, jumping up and down in a dream may indicate being caught up in a situation without having the power to move either forwards or backwards.

3- In certain religions, spiritual ecstasy is induced by jumping. This is a way of employing the physical in order to reach the spiritual.

If you jump up, the image symbolizes your desire to rise up and reach a better social or professional position. So, you should be more energetic and not act according to the will of others. In contrast, dreaming that you are jumping into nothing indicates that you should meditate more consciously before taking on a certain initiative, as although you dare a lot, sometimes you complicate your life by lacking of prudence. (See DIFFICULTIES and CLIMBING)

According to superstition, if you stumble as you jump, you will overcome difficulties, and will eventually reach success.
