What Does It Mean to Dream About Carrying?

Carrying in a dream can be seen as something we hold within us, supporting, protecting, moving from one place to another, or responsibility or a return to childhood in a relationship. So why is it we often carry babies in our dreams? Carrying a baby contains aspects of our own inner child, new growth and development and warmth and beginnings in your life. Alternatively, women who dream of holding a baby might desire having one or relates to their maternal instincts – a boy symbolizing the masculine and the girl the feminine energy. If you are carrying water in your dream it represents holding on to your confined emotions that are weighing you down. To dream of carrying firewood symbolize that you will undergo some sort of transformation; fire has the ability to illuminate your soul. If you dream of carrying bags it represents thing you carry with you – ideas, memories, emotions, past attitudes that carry you in the present moment.
