The possible meanings for doorways, entrances and exits in dreams. A very common sight in dreams simple because we see doorways etc all over the place in our waking world, both literally and figuratively. They are unavoidable, a transition from inside to outside, from outside to inside, from one room to another. Often, the figurative doorways we pass though in our lives are one way, with no turning back. It is a powerful symbol in our dreams and reflection of our daily lives.
