Opportunities, transitions, choices
Driving
Control over life direction, agency
Door
Doors represent opportunities, transitions, and choices. An open door symbolizes new possibilities and welcoming change, while a closed or locked door may represent missed opportunities or barriers. Knocking on a door suggests seeking access or trying to reach someone. Multiple doors can represent the many choices available to you.
Driving
Driving represents your sense of control over life's direction and the choices you're making. The conditions of driving matter immensely: driving on a clear road suggests confidence, driving in fog indicates uncertainty, losing control of the vehicle reflects real-life loss of control. Driving someone else's car may indicate living someone else's life or using borrowed resources. Back-seat driving represents wanting control without responsibility.
