Dead Map in dreams
A representation of your life from above — orientation in symbol form.
How dead changes the reading
The base reading of Map
A map in a dream is the dictionary's image of orientation in symbol form. The dream often appears around moments when you have been trying to make sense of where you are. A map you can read is the dream's image of clarity about your situation. A map whose roads do not match what you see around you is the dictionary's image of a model of your life that no longer matches the life.
Where you often see it. A map you cannot read. A map of a place you have never been but recognise. The dream uses the map for a representation of your life from above — orientation in symbol form.
What it is not. A map is not always accurate. The dictionary often reads its illegibility as the dreamer's lost orientation.
