Dreaming of a cape means the desire to hide and seek protection. Do you want to disappear when you encounter obstacles or when you feel stuck? Your fantasy of flying away is both a sign of procrastinating and an act of escapism. Thinking that someone else will pick up your slack is futile because everyone is responsible for their own destinies. If you choose to wear a cape, take on responsibility instead of using it as an avoidance tool.
A cape in a dream represents protection and safety. This is a universal dream that we all go through, where we are wearing a hero’s cape upholding the duty of protecting things from evil or dangerous people.
I had a dream where my boss was giving me a cape.
