Airport vs Shadow Figure

Airport

Airports represent major life transitions, new beginnings, and the logistics of change. Being at an airport suggests you're preparing for a significant shift. Missing a flight represents fear of missed opportunities. Delayed flights reflect frustration with the pace of change. An empty airport may indicate feeling alone in your transition. The destination of the flight adds important context.

Shadow Figure

Shadow figures — dark, undefined humanoid shapes — represent the Jungian shadow: the rejected, repressed, and unacknowledged aspects of your personality. Encountering a shadow figure is an invitation to integrate disowned parts of yourself. These figures often appear threatening because we fear what we've repressed. Making peace with a shadow figure in a dream represents profound psychological integration.
