The Symbolism of Building and Elevators in Dreams

The Symbolism of Building and Elevators in Dreams
I was walking past an apartment building. On my right was a garden. To my left there was a parking structure. As I was walking I noticed they were building another parking structure to the right of the garden. I also noticed that the new parking structure was just far away enough from the garden such that it wouldn’t block the sunlight. I walked over to a glass elevator because I wanted to get to the street level. I took the elevator to the 10th floor. When I got to the 10th floor I felt like I was floating like the elevator was going up really fast. At the 10th floor to older ladies were trying to climb into the elevator. The elevator had stopped a little higher than the floor. The one lady put her black bag into the elevator. As she was trying to get in the door closed. She asked me to watch her bag. The elevator went down to the 3rd floor then back to the 10th. This time I held the door opened for the ladies to get in. Other people got on to the elevator but were able to get in a different easier way without having to climb in.

This dream may symbolize your journey towards personal growth and development. The apartment building represents your current state of being, while the garden on your right symbolizes your inner peace and tranquility. The parking structure on your left may represent your responsibilities and obligations in waking life. The construction of another parking structure suggests that you are expanding your responsibilities and taking on new challenges. The fact that it is placed strategically to not block the sunlight indicates that you are able to balance your responsibilities without sacrificing your inner peace. The glass elevator represents your desire for a higher perspective and reaching new heights in life. The fast ascent to the 10th floor may symbolize your rapid progress towards your goals. The two older ladies trying to climb into the elevator may represent your fears or doubts about your abilities to handle your new responsibilities. The black bag symbolizes your burdens or worries. The fact that the elevator goes back to the 10th floor after stopping at the 3rd floor may suggest that you need to revisit your goals and reassess your progress. Holding the door open for the ladies and others easily getting on the elevator may symbolize your willingness to help others and your ability to handle your responsibilities with ease. Overall, this dream may be a reminder to find balance and stay focused on your goals while also being open to helping others along the way.
