Dreams involving cars often symbolize your journey in life, control, and direction. In your dream, the car represents your current situation or path, and the fact that your baby is not in her car seat may indicate feelings of vulnerability or a lack of security regarding responsibilities or something precious to you.

Seeing the trunk on fire could reflect feelings of anxiety or fear about something in your life that is out of control or potentially harmful. The explosion may symbolize a significant change or a release of pent-up emotions, suggesting that something within you is ready to be confronted or transformed.

Your instinct to grab your baby and remove her from danger highlights your protective instincts and the importance of ensuring safety for those you care about. Overall, this dream could be urging you to pay attention to areas in your life that may feel unstable or threatening, and to take action to protect what is most important to you.

Consider reflecting on any recent events or feelings that might be causing stress, and think about what steps you can take to create a more secure environment for yourself and your loved ones.
