Car
Life direction, control, ambition
Number Three
Trinity, creativity, expression
Car
Cars in dreams represent your drive through life and how much control you feel. The driver's seat versus passenger seat matters enormously: driving means you're in control, being a passenger means someone else is directing your life. Car problems (brakes failing, engine dying) often reflect feelings of losing control or inability to stop a situation.
Number Three
Three represents the creative principle, expression, and the resolution of duality into synthesis. The trinity archetype appears in countless traditions: Father/Son/Spirit, Maiden/Mother/Crone, past/present/future. In dreams, three often represents the beginning, middle, and end of something, or the mind-body-spirit connection. Three objects or events suggest a pattern or a message about creative expression.
