A journey in a dream often represents a path that you are taking in life. Since a chariot is an old-fashioned way of travel, a dream about a chariot often indicates a desire to gain control of your life by going back to old-fashioned traditions and ways of behavior.
If you dream that you are riding in a chariot, you may feel that you will achieve your goals by sticking with traditional behaviors.
However, if your chariot is in an accident, it is a sign that you should be open to new ideas and new ways of doing things.
If you have trouble controlling the horses that are pulling your chariot, you are afraid that you will not be able to control your basic, animalistic urges.
