Dreaming that you are getting caught by the police could indicate fears or anxieties regarding authority figures. You may feel that your actions are not in line with what the “authority” figures in your life would approve of and thus fear disapproval for your actions. Authority figures could include state officials, family members, teachers, bosses, religious leaders, celebrity figures, or anyone outside of yourself you look to for guidance and direction. Alternatively, this symbol could indicate that you need to take more responsibility for your life and your actions.
