Dreaming of Stairs

Climbing stairs is a process where you ascend or descend to another floor or space. Unless there is a power outage or for health reasons, most people wouldn't choose the gasping-for-breath way when there's an elevator available. Compared to effortlessly riding an elevator, each step in a staircase requires your own effort to move up or down.

Dreaming of climbing stairs is often associated with the aspiration for progress, while descending stairs may reflect a challenging phase in your life. Although the saying goes that people climb higher, you might find yourself sweaty and exhausted at the end of the dream, realizing the true meaning of "the higher you climb, the colder it gets." While climbing the stairs, appreciating the surrounding scenery might make you realize that the process is more important than the result. Sometimes, the dream's stairs seem endless, and despite your fatigue, you can't see the destination. At such times, it's worth considering whether the effort is truly worth it.

Therefore, dreaming of descending stairs is not necessarily a bad thing. Sometimes, while descending stairs in a dream, you might unexpectedly meet a long-lost friend and engage in heartfelt conversations within the staircase. The dream may be suggesting that by letting go of certain things, you will rediscover more memorable experiences. If you dream of being pulled down the stairs by an unseen force, only to discover a beautiful scenery at the bottom, it perfectly embodies the saying "sometimes stepping back opens up a broader horizon."

Stairs have both an upward and a downward direction, and while ascending is gratifying, descending can also bring joy. Although it may sound clichéd, as long as you take care not to twist your foot, there will always be more stairs waiting for you to go up and down!
