To dream that you are avoiding something suggests that you are avoiding the same thing in your waking life. Be careful though, because dream symbols are not always literal. Examine what you are avoiding in the dream and more specifically, what that object represents to you. This will give you clues as to what you may be avoiding in your waking life. Further, dreaming of avoiding something indicates fear or anxiety about that object, person, place, etc… and what it represents . It also suggests a desire to distance and/or disassociate yourself from whatever it is that you were avoiding.
