Maze dreams are deeply psychological, reflecting the inner journey of self-discovery and resolution. They often arise when you are facing significant life transitions or feeling lost in your current situation. According to Jungian theory, these dreams can symbolize the process of individuation, where you navigate through the layers of your unconscious to find your true self. Research by Antti Revonsuo suggests that such dreams may also serve a threat simulation function, helping you prepare for real-life challenges.
