Dreaming of a prison or any other way that restricts your freedom of movement does not refer to your physical being locked up or restricted in reality, but rather to your soul and spirit being confined by your way of thinking. Being spiritually locked in your life leads you to dream of situations in which you are not free, even to have nightmares about it.
A jail can refer to a condition of confinement with respect to your psychic, or that you feel bound with respect to a situation in your waking life.

Positive changes are afoot if
