Horse in Dreams - Controlling Vital Force and Instincts

The horse embodies dynamic, unbridled vital energy (Libido) and bodily instincts. Riding a calm horse symbolizes a perfect balance between consciousness and unconscious instincts—you control your passions and are moving purposefully toward your goal. A running, wild horse reflects a desire for freedom and relentless energy, while a rider thrown from a horse testifies to the loss of control over their own emotions and instincts.
