Dreaming of crossing a river from one bank to the other often symbolizes the transition from one stage of life to another, or overcoming tests, getting rid of difficulties, achieving self-transcendence, and getting rid of troubles.
Rivers sometimes symbolize death, or the boundary between life and death.

Zhouyi Dream Interpretation
Rivers are made of water, so sometimes they can represent nourishment, women, or other things represented by water. Rivers are navigable, just like roads, so rivers can also represent the course of life.
Dream example: The enemy invaded, and the dreamer fled to the river. There was a raft in the river, and a thatched hut was built on the raft, which seemed to be a temporary residence for people living on the water. The dreamer hid under the raft and leaned over to look at the hut. There was no one in the hut, and it seemed that he could go in and live there, but he did not go in.
There are four main symbols in this dream: enemies, river, raft, and straw hut. The raft on the river is equivalent to the car on the ground, which represents a small environment here. The straw hut is like a house, which represents the family at this time. Combining the context, the raft here also takes the meaning of family. The river here represents a displaced life and an unstable life. The enemy symbolizes danger.
The dreamer was considering whether to fall in love with a girl, but he thought that his future was still uncertain and unstable. At the same time, he was not very satisfied with the girl (it was a straw hut, not a house), so he decided to drift with the river.
The river separates the land, so it is also a symbol of obstacles and boundaries. Fromm gave an example: The dreamer is a very favored boy. When he was a child, his parents regarded him as a future genius. He opened his mouth for food and stretched out his hand for clothes. His parents were afraid that he would be in danger, so they protected him in everything. Therefore, he was very dependent when he grew up. One day, he dreamed: "I wanted to cross the river and wanted to find a bridge but couldn't find one. I was still young, only five or six years old, and I couldn't swim. A tall man wanted to carry me across the river. At first I was happy to let him carry me, but when he held me and started walking, I suddenly felt scared. I knew that if I didn't escape, I would die. At this time we were in the middle of the river, and I plucked up the courage to jump into the water from the man's arms. At first I thought I would drown, but I swam across the river."
Fromm pointed out that the one side of this dream is childhood, and the other side is adulthood. The dreamer realizes that in order to grow from childhood to adulthood, he cannot rely on others to grow up, but should be independent.
The river, here, is the boundary between childhood and adulthood. Since the river can be dangerous, it often refers to a boundary that needs to be crossed.
Rivers are channels for water, so rivers also mean passages. The smoothness or blockage of rivers can symbolize the smoothness of other things. For example, if an elderly person dreams of a blocked river, it may symbolize arteriosclerosis, coronary heart disease, cerebral thrombosis and other diseases caused by blood vessel blockage. You should check it out in time and don't ignore the signals from your subconscious mind.
The author once had a dream about a river:
I dreamed of going to a place to play and found a big river. The river was silted up, and there were some small streams here and there. So I and two other people worked together to tame the river and make it unblocked and flowing.
After analysis, this dream represents the author's wish. The author hopes to break through the barriers between the various schools of psychology and integrate them into a whole. I believe that as long as I do this with others, the cause of psychology in my country will grow stronger.
