Statue

Dreams about statues are fascinating. Whether you stumble upon them, create them, or become a statue yourself, dreams about sculpture can be difficult to interpret, but the effort is rewarded with a deep understanding of the processes that gave rise to these images.

If you accidentally discover statues in a dream, pay attention to what figures they depict and what emotions they evoke in you. A dream of this kind can be a variant of a dream about a "skeleton in the closet", statues can also be mythological or spiritual icons.

Another scenario of dreams with statues is that the dreamer is creating a statue. In such dreams, the statue often represents someone you know that you want to control (or some boundary of your personality that you want to have). This dream can serve as a memory signal that you need to have an open discussion about finding the right solution. A dream about identifying oneself with a statue is often caused by the phenomenon of paralysis during sleep. Since when we dream, we cannot move large muscle groups, our brain assumes that we have become like a statue, petrified. According to the logic of sleep, this is quite reasonable. Feeling imprisoned in the shell of a statue often also means that someone else has excessive power over us.
