(Carrier, Carrying weight, Burdens, Forbearance, Serving others) In a dream, a porter or a carrier represents a school bus driver who is entrusted with bringing the children to school, then taking them back home. Whatever appearance he shows in the dream, it will indicate the mental state of the school bus driver. Aporter in a dream also represents someone who is carrying his own sins and burdens.

To see oneself as a porter in a dream means doing penance.
