Trunk

Trunks in dreams are a manifestation of things in your life that you might be still holding on too. This can be anything from past experiences, emotions, memories that you keep behind you. This is at the back of your mind that you have put aside but they are still traveling with you everyday.

As a piece of furniture that protects those things that you cherish, the chest or trunk can be a symbol of the things you 'hold' and how you sort through them to discard what is no longer necessary. The trunk of a tree can represent the foundation of your beliefs that were adopted from your familial upbringing. The chest or trunk of the body can signify emotions or the ability to stand up for your principles. See also Chest and Purses, Wallets, Luggage, Jewels and Keys.

In a dream, a trunk represents a wife, a beautiful woman, one’s house, or one’s shop. In a dream, a trunk also represents marriage for an unwed person, prosperity for a poor person, travels, or an ambassador.
