Many people have had a dream in which they are stranded on top of a high wall, or perhaps a cliff, unable to get down and terrified of falling. Often, this type of dream indicates a situation in which you are out of touch with reality. It may be that you overestimate your abilities. Or perhaps you are living in a fantasy world, trying to create an ideal scenario without taking into account your own limitations or those of others. If so, it’s time to come down to earth and take a more realistic view.

The dream can also imply feelings of insecurities about your status. This is usually the meaning if you are in a situation in which you are worried that you may have come down in the world’.

Sometimes, a dream like this suggests that you feel unable to stand on your own two feet because you lack emotional support. Pride may be preventing you from asking for the help you need.

You could also have this dream if you are taking the moral high ground in a situation. This can be a lonely, even dangerous position and your dream is urging you to cultivate humility.
