Crossing a bridge marks the passage from one state to another. The act of bridging implies a connection that allows for the movement from one condition to another. This dream shows a movement away from a former stability toward a new ground.
The stability of this passage depends on the strength of the connection. A dream of crossing a bridge is not a sign of arrival, but of the movement itself. The transition is a process of overcoming the distance between what was and what will be. A bridge provides the way through a change.
Water beneath the crossing adds the element of livelihood to the transition. The presence of this element means the passage involves the very sustenance of life.
A high or narrow bridge increases the fragility of the connection. Such a state of the symbol suggests that the transition requires a heightened sense of balance.
Crossing a scary bridge with someone indicates that an intimidating circumstance is shared with another. This presence means the encounter with daunting conditions is not met in isolation.
Crossing a bridge with someone shows that the movement between states involves a partner. This detail means the transition is a shared experience.
Fear or danger during the crossing signifies a confrontation with daunting conditions. This quality indicates that the passage is met with significant psychological or situational pressure.
Trying or failing to cross the bridge shows a movement that is halted. This state indicates that the passage from one condition to the next is not yet realized.
A flooded bridge turns the passage into a source of sorrow. The presence of excess water marks the transition as one heavy with grief.
A broken bridge signifies that the way is severed. This state indicates that the passage is interrupted and the transition cannot be completed.

It is a dream and a vision. I keep seeing a large red bridge from a distance but all I can see is the bridge, the sky, plenty of clouds, land, a lot of water under the bridge and the sun. But there are no cars, no animals, no boats. And I have been seeing it for years. It reminds me of the bridge in San Francisco. But the thing about that I have never been there and none of the images I ever seen or can look up look nothing like my vision or dream. Oh plus only sounds I hear are water and wind.

Twice I have dreamt of crossing a newly built road bridge over a river, but only half-way, and then I wake. Recently, I dreamt of riding as a backseat passenger in a car crossing a bridge over a flowing river to the left. To my right was a dry riverbed and drought stricken, rocky land; to my left was the flowing river with green grass and trees on either side of it. I decided I would only look toward the left to see the flowing river and greenery. After only crossing halfway, I woke.

It was dark and gloomy, might have been raining. I was driving and came to a bridge that was surrounded by water. I think it was a wooden bridge hovering right above the water. About 10 feet into the bridge there was a puddle of water on a section of it, and I was too scared it was too deep and my car wouldn’t make it or that the bridge would break. So I reversed the car and left.
