I saw a childhood friend walking with a backpack to what seemed to be a school. We made eye contact, and I immediately ran to her and gave her a big hug.
Dreams about childhood friends often symbolize nostalgia or a desire to reconnect with aspects of your past. The presence of a backpack and the setting of a school could indicate a sense of readiness or preparation for a new phase in your life. Making eye contact with your friend and running to give her a big hug suggests a deep emotional connection and a longing for companionship, support, or comfort. This dream may reflect a subconscious desire to find familiarity, security, and warmth during times of change or uncertainty. It could also represent a need for social connection and a reminder to maintain connections with important people from your past.
