If you dream about a compass, it means that you are searching for direction. You may be wondering what you want to do with your life, or you may simply need to make a choice regarding a particular situation.
A compass in a dream may be a reminder that you do, in fact, have choices. You may think that you have only one option; your dream is telling you to look around you and pay attention to the different choices that you have.
A dream of a compass can be a message that you need to be more open-minded and look at things from more than one perspective. It can mean that you need to make sure that you are being fair when making a judgment, that you listen to all arguments before making a decision.
Dreaming that you have a compass with you while you are on a journey can mean that you are confident that you even though you may temporarily swayed from your goal at times, ultimately, you will remain on the correct path.
