Dreaming of an accident could indicate that you are feeling out of control in some aspect of your life. Examine your life and think about places where you do not feel you have control. Ask yourself, what about the situation makes you feel out of control and examine if there is any way to gain more control over the situation. Often our need for control stems from fear, so examine your fears and ask yourself what you are afraid of in relation to the area in which you feel out of control. Accidents often occur during times of stress and can be very transformative events. They are a call to wake up and pay attention to what is going on in your life. Dreaming of an accident therefore can indicate that there are areas in your life where you need to pay attention and release some tension. Examine the area of your life depicted in the dream and move towards resolving the tension.
