Ivy vine
A climbing plant that holds on to other structures — support borrowed from whatever it is allowed to climb on.
An ivy vine in a dream is the dream's image of a growth that holds itself up by attaching to something else. Ivy does not stand on its own; it climbs walls, trees, fences. The dream brings the ivy when a part of your life — a career, a friendship, a sense of self — is currently growing because of what it is attached to, rather than what it is. Ivy holding gently to a sound wall is the dream telling you the dependency is working and not doing harm. Ivy strangling the tree it climbs is the dream noting that the borrowed support has begun to take more from the host than it is returning.
