According to the interpreters of night dreams, each of them has its own special meaning, which can be comprehended only given all the details of what was seen. We will use some of the most popular dream books these days, and try to find out, for example, what the elevator dreams of - this tireless assistant that makes our life more comfortable and enjoyable.
Dreams foreshadowing luck
Most authors agree that, in general, such a vision speaks of the dreamer's hidden desire to succeed in life and increase his social status. However, we will not forget about the nuances, since they can give the seen a very specific color. We begin our review with pleasant predictions, especially since they prevail in this section of dream books.
Answering the question of why there is an elevator in which the dreamer goes up to the upper floors of the building, most modern authors confidently say that in reality this portends a successful solution to serious problems. But this can only be achieved with outside help. Particularly encouraging is a dream in which, having risen on an elevator, a person enters a spacious and bright room - this promises him close luck. If the dreamer is a careerist who has devoted his life to climbing the career ladder, then he can safely count on a speedy promotion and order a festive banquet.
What else promises us upward movement
Why does the elevator dream, understands Tsvetkov’s dream book in detail. This respected author makes the interpretation of what he sees dependent on how fast the cabin moved in the dream. If the climb went quickly, this means various obstacles and difficulties in the upcoming affairs. They will be completed, but with great difficulty and hiccups. If the elevator in the dream rose slowly, then this, on the contrary, promises the rapid execution of all enterprises.
Such a recognized authority in the field of dreams as American psychoanalyst Gustav Miller did not ignore the topic that interests us. Talking about what dreams of going up the elevator, he is full of optimism, and promises everyone who has visited such a vision, speedy wealth and social status.
The only undesirable detail of such a dream could be a stop on the very top floor. In this case, the scientist admits that the dreamer will soon have to hide from others (and, possibly, from the authorities) some information compromising a person close to him. However, he does not claim that in this case we are talking about a certain crime. Perhaps everything is limited only by facts that can offend his pride.
Lift down
The authors of dream books do not leave unanswered the question of why the elevator descends to the lower floors of the building. In this case, there is also a generally accepted point of view and private opinions regarding certain details of what has been seen. Most experts agree that, in this case, dreamers expect changes in life, but they will occur extremely slowly, and some of them, in general, will not be fully realized.
Such a judgment is made, in particular, by the authors-compilers of the widely used Universal Dream Book. They warn that the excessively fast movement of the elevator down could portend a person to a sudden demotion, or even dismissal. Accordingly, seeing yourself in a similar role, you need to soberly assess your official position, and if necessary, take appropriate measures.
What does the rapid descent to the lower floor mean?
Gustav Miller, mentioned by us, also wrote about what dreams of going in an elevator moving down. In his opinion, such a story does not carry any encouraging information, but portends only future complications. It is especially alarming when the elevator descends to the first, or, worse, basement floor. In this case, innumerable troubles can await the dreamer in reality. If this is a dream (we don’t, as we know, choose dreams), then the only way to somehow rectify the situation is to try to press the desired button and go up again without leaving the cab. Of course, you need to do this without waking up.

The same section should include the question of what dreams of falling in the elevator to. Note that in this case it is not meant to stumble and fall to its floor, but to be in a cabin rapidly rushing down (falling). Such a dream should not be scared, because for all its extremeness, it does not contain negative information, but, according to experts, it portends an early acquaintance with a person who has extremely extraordinary qualities and is able to change the dreamer's life for the better, and take a very prominent place in it .
Why dream of getting stuck in an elevator?
Few of modern people have happened to be a prisoner of a sudden stop and not wanting to continue the elevator. A similar situation, often waking up, often becomes the plot of night visions. What do our esteemed interpreters say about this?
First of all, let us turn to Longo's dream book, since it contains a very important warning about this. According to the author, a similar plot tells the dreamer about the impending deception, the victim of which may soon become a victim. In this case, we are talking about selling him any defective goods, or some other kind of trade fraud.
Therefore, a person who sees himself in a dream stuck in an elevator is strongly advised to refrain from shopping in the near future, especially such large ones as buying an apartment, a car, a summer residence, etc. It is better to put them aside for a more suitable moment, and save yourself from unnecessary chagrin.
Longo's opinion about the threat contained in dreams, where a person sees himself stuck in an elevator, is shared by many of his colleagues. For example, in the “Modern Dream Book” it is said that such images can indicate the uncertainty of the situation, the way out of which he will have to look for in real life. At the same time, a number of other compilers directly indicate that the dreamer is threatened by a serious, but at the same time, hidden from his eyes, a danger that he hardly suspects.
Why does a woman dream about an elevator?
As you know, the meaning of sleep depends not only on its plot features, but also on the one to whom it was dreamed - a man or a woman. Therefore, all compilers of dream books pay special attention to this question. For example, many of them interpret the image of the elevator seen by the woman as a sign that in real life, she has little hope for her own strengths, and, in case of problems, she resorted to outside help, despite the fact that she could easily handle it herself.
Dreams with a romantic connotation
In the popular Dream Book of Mineghetti, there is one very curious remark. The author claims that if a woman in a dream is haunted by the image of a rising elevator, this may indicate her sensuality and increased sexual arousal. If she at the same time controls the rise herself, then this promises her financial well-being in the future.
At the same time, the author writes that if a lady dreamed of elevators randomly slamming their doors, this portends her an abundance of love affairs, and many fans. It remains only to be happy for her, because in the eyes of those around her, at the same time, she will maintain a reputation as an exemplary wife.
Spirituality manifested in dreams
Let us dwell on some opinions regarding the question of why the elevator dreams. In a dream, his image is often visited by people, and therefore it becomes the object of interpretation of most authors published today, dream books. Some of them indicate that with all the plot variety of such dreams, and the difference in their interpretation, they are evidence of a certain dreamer's spirituality that prevails over his physical essence. It is difficult to say how justified such a statement is, but it certainly can be an occasion for optimism.
Elevators moving horizontally
In the previous sections of the article it was talked about why the elevator is moving up or down, meanwhile, according to some authors, in night visions it can move to the side, that is, to move horizontally. And if so, then there are interpretations of such a phenomenon.
It turns out that if an elevator was seen moving around from left to right, then, having put aside all matters, one should urgently go deep into one's inner world, because it indicates that a person who prefers household worries neglects his spiritual development. It turns out what deep meaning our night visions can carry. Sweet dreams to all!
