Case Analysis of Dreaming of Losing a Car

[Dream Example 1]

Dream Description: Last night I dreamed that my car was lost. I was very scared; this is the second time I have dreamed that my car was lost. Could this be an omen? In the dream, it was like this: my parents and I went out to handle some matters, my father left first, and asked us to drive to another place to wait for him. My mother drove me to another neighborhood, parked the car near some shops, and left me waiting. I kept saying the parking spot was not good because it was a bit in the way. But in reality, my mother doesn't have a driver's license and can't drive. After a while, I got out of the car and walked forward for a bit. When I came back, I found the car was gone.

Dream Interpretation: According to Jung's dream interpretation theory, the car often symbolizes the self; driving is a way of controlling oneself and handling things encountered in life. Dreaming of the car disappearing is a kind of hesitation about one's abilities. Dreaming of the car being stolen means you will encounter some small troubles in life. Dreaming of losing the car indicates a subconscious fear of losing something. An employee dreaming of losing the car suggests they are very afraid of losing their job.

[Dream Example 2]

Dream Description: This is the second time recently that I have dreamed of losing the car. It was generally with my family—my parents. My father left first and asked us to drive to another place to wait for him. My mother drove me to a place where one side was a neighborhood and the other side was shops. She also left, leaving me waiting. I kept saying the parking spot was not good because it was a bit in the way (in reality, my mother can't drive). After a while, I got out of the car and walked forward for a bit. After some time, there was suddenly a traffic jam, so I planned to go back and move the car. From a distance, I could still see our car. After walking back and forth, I found the car was gone. I thought I had taken the wrong path and walked again, but still couldn't find the car. The traffic jam was also gone. At this time, my mom came back, and I told her the car was lost. We looked for it together. I used the remote control and heard it nearby. When we found it, it was at a place similar to a key duplication shop. The alarm sound was coming from there. The person said someone had just asked him to disassemble the device, and after disassembling it, the person left. I thought to myself that this was a coordinated crime. In the end, we still didn't find the car.

Dream Interpretation: Generally, the car symbolizes the self, and driving is controlling oneself. Dreaming of the car disappearing symbolizes a loss of self. Parking the car between a neighborhood (home) and shops (society) means your self is in a state between leaving the family and entering the real world. However, in the dream, you are not satisfied with the parking position, indicating that you are uncomfortable with your situation. The traffic jam symbolizes competition and pressure in society. Under such circumstances, your self (the car) is lost. You then begin to doubt your choices (whether you took the wrong path), resulting in relying on your mother's support (the two of you looking together), but still not finding the car. The alarm sound is worth noting; it may be a warning or hint (the key is the solution). Additionally, the initial part of the dream, involving your father, mother, and you, forms an Oedipal structure, and your father's early exit may be related to the problems you encounter later.
