Elevator
Rapid change, social mobility, transitions
Wedding
Union, commitment, transition
Elevator
Elevators represent rapid transitions between states of consciousness, social levels, or emotional states. Going up suggests rapid advancement or rising consciousness. Going down may represent descent into the unconscious or social decline. A malfunctioning elevator — free-falling, stuck between floors — represents anxiety about rapid changes or feeling out of control during transitions.
Wedding
Wedding dreams represent the union of different aspects of yourself, major commitments, or transitional life phases. They don't necessarily predict actual weddings. Dreaming of your own wedding may reflect anxiety or excitement about commitment. A disastrous wedding might indicate fear of commitment or feeling unprepared for a major life change.
