We often hear of dreamers struggling to move in dreams\u2014being unable to throw a punch, say, or only being able to run in slow motion. So what does it mean when just the opposite occurs? When, like in your dreams, you are able to run tirelessly for long distances, whisk through obstacle courses, and even sprint to the head of a racing pack?<\/p>\n<p>If dreams of being unable to move typically symbolize feelings of powerlessness, then do dreams of being a super-athlete reflect feelings of confidence and ability? The answer, not surprisingly, is yes. Like dreams of flying unfettered, your dreams of running are accompanied by pleasant emotions, as you enjoy your seemingly boundless energy and ability.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019ve been \u201cput to the test\u201d recently, either at school, at work, or in your emotional life, your dreams suggest you are successfully meeting these challenges, and giving yourself good grades (votes of confidence and self-esteem) along the way. The \u201cobstacle course,\u201d for example, might represent a challenging relationship you recently had to navigate. Similarly, \u201csprinting to the finish line\u201d might represent a deadline for work that you had to toil all weekend to achieve\u2014and you did. If you are a student, running on a track may represent the years of coursework you need to complete to receive your degree.<\/p>\n<p>A great wisdom of dream interpretation is that feelings in dreams never are disguised. In your dreams you feel an abundance of strength and confidence. The dreams are pleasant and<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s great to be on top of your game, isn\u2019t it? Keep up the good work! exhilarating. You achieve your goals easily.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Back to the<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/articles\/running\/\" id=\"255\" option=\"com_content\">original dream<\/a><br \/><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Back to list of<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/articles\/common-dreams\/\" id=\"27\" option=\"com_content\">common dreams<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","categories":[2958,2976],"class_list":["post-35465","articles","type-articles","status-publish","hentry","category-common-dreams-answer","category-copy-of-celebrity"],"acf":{"article_id":"257"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/articles\/35465","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/articles"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/articles"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=35465"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=35465"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
