Being Lost
Being lost in a dream represents feeling directionless, confused about life decisions, or searching for something you can't quite identify. The location where you're lost provides clues: lost in a city suggests career/social confusion, lost in nature suggests disconnection from your authentic self, lost in a building suggests identity confusion. The anxiety of being lost reflects the fear of making wrong choices.
