Running

If you dream that you are running away from something this suggests that you are trying to avoid facing up to your fears, particularly if you are being chased by an attacker.

It might be time to take responsibility for your actions and the outcome will probably not be as bad as you imagine.

If you are running towards something this represents your passion and drive to achieve your goals, you are full of energy and approach everything head on.

This shows that you are comfortable and secure in yourself and you don’t mind putting yourself out there to achieve a good result.

If you are running with lots of other people in the same direction this suggests that you feel supported and that when you are in trouble your friends will help you out.

If you dream that you are running but unable to move your feet as if they are in cement this can imply that you are unsure about your abilities and you doubt yourself.

If you are running and keep checking the time this suggests that you are late for something, maybe you need to make a decision quickly. If everyone else is running but you are walking this suggests that you feel calm in the face of a storm and you manage to keep your emotions under control.

Alternatively it signifies your fear of being left behind while everyone is getting to the places they want to.
