Interpretation 2 — Pamela Ball

1- The act of jumping can be somewhat ambiguous in a dream. It can indicate either jumping up attempting to attain something better for ourselves or jumping down, which can mean going down into the unconscious and those parts of ourselves where we may feel we are in danger. Jumping on the spot can indicate joy and has the same significance as dance (See Dance).

2- Repetitive movement of any sort in a dream usually indicates the need to reconsider our actions, to look at what we arc doing and perhaps to express ourselves in a different way. On a psychological level, jumping up and down in a dream may indicate being caught up in a situation without having the power to move either forwards or backwards.

3- In certain religions, spiritual ecstasy is induced by jumping. This is a way of employing the physical in order to reach the spiritual.

Interpretation 3 — Martha Clarke

If you jump up, the image symbolizes your desire to rise up and reach a better social or professional position. So, you should be more energetic and not act according to the will of others. In contrast, dreaming that you are jumping into nothing indicates that you should meditate more consciously before taking on a certain initiative, as although you dare a lot, sometimes you complicate your life by lacking of prudence. (See DIFFICULTIES and CLIMBING)

According to superstition, if you stumble as you jump, you will overcome difficulties, and will eventually reach success.

Interpretation 4 — Theresa Cheung

The act of jumping up in a dream can suggest trying to better ourselves. Jumping down can signify going down into the unconscious and those parts of ourselves we have yet to discover. Jumping on the spot is similar to dancing and signifies joy.

If you made a perfect jump, this could suggest that you have made or are about to make a quantum leap in the form of an important decision.

If your jump misses the mark, however, you may have made the wrong choice or are about to make it.
