Sleeping Cliff in dreams
An edge — a stop in the landscape that forces a decision.
How sleeping changes the reading
The base reading of Cliff
A cliff in a dream is the dictionary's image of an edge that forces a decision. The dream often appears at points in life where a phase has reached its actual limit and continuing the same way is no longer an option.
Standing at the cliff is the moment of recognising it. Jumping is decisive action; turning back is decisive return. The dream rarely insists on one over the other; it insists only that the edge is real.
Where you often see it. A cliff in a landscape that had not warned of one. The edge of a cliff with another step still possible. The dream uses the cliff for an edge — a stop in the landscape that forces a decision.
What it is not. A cliff is not always tragic. The dictionary reads it as the forced moment of choice.
Related in the dictionary. Read cliff with falling, jumping, and any scene where the next step is not optional to consider.
