Actions

Jumping from height

Committing the body to a fall — a chosen, irreversible drop into the next condition.

Jumping from height in a dream is the dream's image of a committed, irreversible move from one level to another. Once the feet leave the edge, the deliberation is over. The dream brings the action when a decision in your life — a resignation, a move, a confession — has reached the point of the leap. A jump made cleanly, landing on your feet, is the dream telling you the commitment was correctly timed. A jump that is endless, with no landing, is the dream noting that you committed to the drop without knowing where the ground was, and the moment of arrival has not yet come.
