What does it mean to dream about fighting?

A dream action—physical confrontation, reflecting direct engagement with a real or internal conflict.

In omens, fighting portends conflict or opposing interests in waking life. Fighting, as distinct from a large battle, symbolizes personal, immediate conflict—a direct confrontation with a specific issue or person. The ability to defend or attack reflects readiness to uphold personal boundaries.
