What does it mean to dream about boundaries?

A sense of clear or blurred limits of personal space in a dream, often reflecting the current quality of personal boundaries in relationships.

Boundaries archetypally symbolize the ego's ability to distinguish self from other — a necessary structure for healthy interaction with others without loss of self. Their condition in a dream (clear, blurred, violated) often directly reflects real-life boundary dynamics.
