I have this recurring dream where I am at the top of a HUGELY tall escalator. A I try to walk down, the steps 'heal over' and the escalator turns into a really frightening slide. I am desperately trying to cling on to the rail, but to no avail...I come crashing down it

I also have a similar dream where I am walking down the corridoors of the tube station (subway) and the same thing happens, the floor turns into a steep slide and it's even worse as there is no rail to hold onto!!

Can you help interpret what this means

Thanks in advance

Escalator

To see an escalator in your dream, indicates movement between various levels of consciousness. If you are moving up in the escalator, then it suggests that you are addressing and confronting emotional issues. You are moving through your spiritual journey with great progress and ease. If you are going down the escalator, then it implies repression and descent back into your unconscious. It may be indication of a setback.

Slide

To dream that you or somebody is on a slide, indicates that you are experiencing some instability in your waking life. You may have lost your grip on a situation or relationship.

Subway

To dream that you are in the subway, denotes that you are reaching your goal via unconscious methods. You may be exploring hidden aspects of yourself. Alternatively, it suggests that you are making a hasty decision.

Corridor

To dream that you are walking through a long corridor, signifies your desperation in trying to escape a repetitive situation or behavior patters. You need to free yourself of this repetition and the corridor is seen as a passage from one phase in your life to another.

You are feeling slightly insecure right now, maybe there has or is about to be a change in your life that you don't think you are ready for and you feel that your life is starting to "slide" or rolla-coaster out of control with frightening consequences.

What you need today is to stop and think, to ask yourself where you are going in life and if it is truly the right path for you and is it really what you want or is it what someone else wants to to be/do. Look within yourself and you will get a handle on your dreams and your life will be back on track

The common link between these two different dreams is that you're falling, you have no control...no choice....I feel that this reflects the fact that you feel that you have no control in your life, essentially that you are "controlled" by the outside world..you have a desire to take the reins, so to speak... These types of dreams are common....running but not moving, being chased and not being able to get away....etc... perhaps also you feel a fear that you can't achieve your goals.... it takes a lot of reflection to discover what's really going on here, and you'll have to do the work to figure it out... Take action!

Yeah, your dreams means that you are trying to take the easy way up in trying to obtain or reach a certain goal in your life, but because of the way you are going about it, the steps are being pulled out from under your feet causing you to go backwards instead of forwards.

I have a similar dream where I slip down the stairs and I can't get hold of the bannisters. It might have something to do with feeling like you are losing control in your life, or it might be a fear that you aren't facing.

No. Unless you want to tell me your life story. I would think that only you could interepret a dream as you would have to make associations between events in the dream and your own experiences and associations.

well im no expert, but there is insecurity /fear there , perhaps fear of losing control , perhaps in your every day life , as these are situaitons u could well find yourself in , so im going to go for fear of lsing control of a situation , and terrified you can find no way out of it....it could also be nervous anticipation of a forthcoming event /situation of which your scared of the outcome...
just a few little observations i hope this helps a little

You are worried that you cannot perform everyday simple tasks which are expected of you in your daily life.

You expect at any moment you will lose control of your life and it's control will be taken out of your hands.

You maybe slightly afraid of heights also.
