What does it mean to dream about a bridge?

If you dream of crossing a bridge, chances are you are going through some change in your waking life.

Perhaps you need to make an important decision in your life (to cross or not to cross as it were). This is especially true if you were standing at one end of the bridge.

If you were approaching a bridge then change is coming soon but it’s a transition you are anticipating. You can see it coming, so at least you have time to plan and can give it some thought.

If the bridge was over water, it’s possible you will experience some negativity or difficulty while making this change. It won’t be simple, but it will be worth it when you get to the finish line.

If you jumped off a bridge in your dreamscape, it’s possible you are letting challenges and obstacles get in the way of your progress. How can you overcome them?

If you were worried about crossing a bridge, perhaps you aren’t mentally prepared for the changes that are about to take place. Do you have a fear of moving forward in your life? Or do you worry about all the possible things that could go wrong if you enter a new phase of your life?

Another interpretation of jumping off a bridge is that you want to abandon something before it’s even begun. The idea of it is enough to put you off. Perhaps you need to try it first and then see how you feel.

If you jumped when you were half-way across the bridge, perhaps you want to give up on something that you’ve already invested a lot in already, but you see no hope of reaching the other end. A bad relationship is a common example of this.
