Roots

Root, Tree roots, Roots of a tree

Roots hold a plant steady and feed it from below, unseen. In dreams they often relate to your origins, family, home and the values that keep you grounded. Strong, deep roots suggest stability and a firm sense of who you are. Pulling up roots can reflect a move, a big change or a wish to start over somewhere new. Tangled roots may hint at complicated family ties. Roots exposed above the ground can mean that something from your past is coming to the surface.
