Dreaming of a door

Doors are pure thresholds, and dreams love them. An open door can mean opportunity, welcome, a new chapter inviting you through; a locked or closed one, an obstacle, a secret, or a chapter not yet ready. What's on the other side is what you sense but haven't entered.

The gatekeepers and crossroads gods of myth stand at exactly such passages, demanding a small toll — a name, a truth, a readiness — before they let you cross. A door in your dream may be asking whether you're ready to walk through.

Dream meanings are reflective, not medical or predictive. If a dream troubles you often, be gentle with yourself — and talk to someone you trust.
