Subconscious
In the subconscious dream book, an escalator symbolizes your life path. Aspirations and hopes can be embodied in this image. Therefore, it is necessary to take into account where the steps moved.
If you saw the rise, but did not intend to get to the top, it means that in reality you are experiencing an unconscious fear of success. Perhaps you lack the determination to realize all your existing plans and hopes.
Descent indicates a desire to return to the past. It is possible that you do not want to part with him, because then you felt happy. But this image may also hint at the fact that it is in the past that we need to look for the answer to what is happening now.

- the rise indicates success and opportunities to implement all planned plans. Luck will be with you in the near future, so don’t miss your chances;

If you dream about an escalator
A complete description of the dream on the topic: “If you dream of an escalator” with an interpretation from astrologers for people.
/ Dream Interpretation / ...
It’s very easy to find out why you dream about an escalator. It is enough to remember that this mechanism provides automatic movement. This means that you practically cannot influence the events that happen in life. The dream book, however, recommends taking a closer look at other symbols that you observed in your dream.
Toward career growth
The first thing the dream book advises you to remember is that you had to go up or down. Regardless of the method, going up somewhere in a dream is certainly better than going down.
Therefore, if you dreamed that you were going up, then in real life you will experience sure, albeit slow, career growth. If in a dream you were driving down, then you can’t expect quick success at your place of work.
Moreover, if in a dream you climbed on foot along a stationary strip, then the path to success will be difficult and time-consuming.
Spiritual development
According to a not very common interpretation of the dream book, a moving escalator in a dream symbolizes the spiritual development of the dreamer.
It’s not difficult to understand this plan, why you dream of climbing a mountain on it. Your inner self-awareness is likely growing and evolving.
If you dreamed of a sharp fall from an escalator, then the dream book believes that something happened that made you lose faith, change your opinion to a false one, or simply become disappointed.
Uncertainty sign
It is known that most often escalators are installed in the subway or in a store. The dream book recommends that you be sure to take into account the place you dreamed about. After all, its symbolism can be the opposite.
For example, the subway itself is a mysterious and enigmatic image, often associated with danger and uncertainty. Seeing him in a dream is not always a good sign. Therefore, a metro escalator moving upward represents liberation and new ideas.
If in a night’s dream you had to go down, or worse, you saw yourself falling from a ski lift, then a period of difficulties and hopelessness looms ahead.
Don't be late!
By the way, if in your night dreams you were intensively moving along the escalator against its movement and the crowd of people, then you have a great idea, but it will not be received properly.
On the other hand, the dream book believes that the subway has become a familiar part of life for many. And it’s not surprising that you dreamed of a lift crowded with people during rush hour. Probably, the subconscious is hinting that you may be late for work or an important meeting.
According to Miller
Why do you dream about an escalator in a store? Here you will have to deal with the interpretation of the trading place itself. The dream book suggests using any details to decipher: the presence of customers, goods on the shelves, lighting, sounds and much more. However, most often, a trading establishment may be seen in a dream as a sign of a reflection of the financial condition and everything connected with it.
Freud's Dream Book
The founder of psychoanalysis believed that walking down an escalator in a dream is a sign of excessive arrogance from which you suffer. Somehow you decided that you are a consummate lover, so there is no need to try very hard. However, your position will lead to the fact that your partner will not experience pleasure.
Seeing your own rise is a sign that you will receive extraordinary impressions from the upcoming intimacy. If you dreamed that you were watching another person get up, you are not really active in bed. Your passivity causes dissatisfaction and misunderstanding on the part of your partner.
Dreaming that you are trying to run upstairs is a hint that you need to be more attentive towards dear people. Most likely, you are now at the peak of popularity with the opposite sex, and things are going well. However, this cannot last forever. One day you may find yourself broke, and then remember your loved ones.
To see a representative of the opposite sex at the top of the rise - in reality you strive to start a relationship with some person. You have known him for a long time, but have not yet decided to take serious action.
Falling from a height implies severe disappointment that will overtake you in the near future. It will be caused by a person whom you completely trust. Perhaps it will be your sexual partner.
Kanovskaya's universal dream book
Walking down an escalator in a dream means that in real life you are too proud. We are talking about relationships at work and with your loved ones. You have stopped trying to do anything for this, because you are sure that everyone around you is completely delighted with you. Walking up a moving escalator in a dream means that pleasant and intense pleasure awaits you in the near future. If you saw someone else on the stairs going up, then this is a sign of passivity in bed.
Miller's Dream Book
In the interpretation of this source, an escalator in a dream represents one of the possible events:
- climbing it is a sign that your career will confidently go uphill. True, you will think that everything is not happening fast enough;
- descent indicates that you should not count on promotion or success in the service;
- a malfunctioning mechanism, due to which you have to climb on foot, warns of serious difficulties. The path to success will be thorny and difficult;
- falling from a moving ladder is a warning of troubles and misfortunes. For people involved in business, the dream foretells complete collapse. For farmers - loss of harvest;
- to see that the steps are broken is a sign that the enemies will take active action against you;
- while climbing on the mechanism you felt dizzy - in reality you behave capriciously and unpleasantly when you occupy a higher position. You need to be more relaxed about new honors.
Moving stairs in a dream
I dreamed of a moving staircase
Dream books state that in order to consider such a vision, it is necessary to have at least a couple more related factors.
Of course, the highest priority will be the movement of the stairs, that is, whether you were riding the escalator up or down.
What do dream books think
As mentioned above, many interpreters simply do not consider this symbol, since they were created long before its appearance.
True, at times interpretations of this symbol still occur.
Big dream book
This interpreter gives the most complete interpretation of dreams about an escalator:
- Riding down the steps means a sleeping person has too high an opinion of himself. This negatively affects both work and relationships with your significant other. Stop thinking that your partner is simply delighted with you, and that all the troubles that arise in a relationship are solely his fault and concern. If you continue to move in the same direction, it will not lead to anything good.
- Rising on the escalator - happiness awaits you, bordering on bliss. A situation will occur that will literally put you in a state of euphoria.
- Watching another person ride an escalator, but standing yourself - you are deprived of imagination in intimate matters; your partner may soon get tired of this.
Dream Interpretation of Vasiliev
To rise - to a promotion
Why do you dream of an escalator that lifts you up? Your promotion up the career ladder is expected.
Go down - accordingly, the situation at work will worsen. Other areas of life will also decline.
Loff's Dream Book
Loff believed that going up an escalator in a dream means an improvement in the standard of living, and going down means its decline. But at the same time, he also suggested why you dream that you are walking up a non-working escalator. Such a dream warns: in order to succeed, you need to make a lot of effort, as well as overcome certain obstacles.
Psychologists' point of view
Psychologists adhere to the point of view in which the escalator is viewed not as a path to success, but as a person’s self-esteem and worldview.
That is, if you are going down, then your self-esteem is too high. Soon a situation will arise in which you will have to tone down your temper a little and understand that the world does not revolve only around you.
Sigmund Freud, as always, viewed all symbols with sexual overtones. Going down an escalator characterizes you as a self-confident person; you believe that you have no equal in carnal pleasures, and you don’t even make any effort to satisfy your partner. The rise shows that you love and practice innovations; your partner’s pleasure is above all else. This behavior is usually rewarded with gratitude from the other half. Soon you will experience new sensations together.
Dream Interpretation of Dmitry and Nadezhda Winter
In this dream book, an escalator in the subway or in another place indicates progress in business. The image hints that you will not be able to influence the events that occur. The rise usually predicts an upcoming career takeoff. But the descent indicates that management will be dissatisfied with your actions and will openly declare this.
It seemed like you were going down the subway - in the real world you have to solve a difficult issue. This will take a lot of your energy and time, and will also force you to concentrate extremely hard. But you can't put off the decision until later. If you were traveling up the subway, then a problem that has been bothering you for a long time will soon resolve itself. And you can relax and unwind.
What kind of escalator did you dream about?
It’s worth trying to remember in detail what the escalator looked like. Depending on the characteristics of its appearance, the meaning of the dream will differ.
Long
If the escalator was very long, the dream is about the distant future. It indicates that you are moving in the right direction, but it is better not to plan anything new in the near future.
Short
Seeing a small short escalator in a dream means that in real life a person will experience a passing hobby, feelings that will not develop into a serious relationship.
Slow
Seeing an extremely slow escalator in a dream is a hidden threat. The esoteric dream book considers the meaning taking into account the direction of movement of a slow escalator. Down - to a health threat, up - to financial or professional difficulties.
Fast
Seeing a fast escalator in a dream means a rapid, unpredictable change in life plans. The dream also shows that a person is overly rushing things and missing something important.
No steps
If in a dream there was an escalator without steps, this is a symbol of difficulties. Something awaits you that you couldn't foresee. Such a dream promises problems that you can cope with.
Broken
Seeing a broken escalator in a dream is a sign that indicates the presence of insurmountable obstacles to the realization of your plans. This dream indicates that you have chosen the wrong path.
Loff's Dream Book
As this author pointed out, a moving staircase symbolizes the accessibility or inaccessibility of something valuable and important. This is what a person dreams of in reality, although he cannot always achieve it. The image can indicate whether the dreamer is able to achieve the desired heights or not.
In some cases, a lift may be the only way to get to the top. Then this indicates dependence on circumstances. In addition, in some situations there is a fall from a height, which indicates the precariousness of your position.
Dream Interpretation Modern
In this source, the image personifies possible success in the life of a sleeping person. Often it testifies to the energy and determination of the dreamer. In the dream book, riding an escalator up in a dream is evidence that only joyful events will happen in life. Luck will turn its face towards you, making everything around you sparkle with bright colors.
If you dream of falling from a height, this speaks of wasted efforts, disappointment and despair. A broken mechanism warns that all your endeavors will be unsuccessful. You shouldn't count on success.
