Symbol: The torch is a symbol of victory, joy, freedom, and liberation.
If you see a torch: a secret will be unveiled, or love is knocking on your door. Witnessing or raking part in a torchlight parade: be careful, don’t get involved in a hasty love affair. Watching a torch go out or watching one being doused; a dashed hope, or a death in your circle of friends is imminent.

[2]Once a symbol for marriage, because the fire in the hearth was lit in a ritual ceremony with a torch. Then it became a symbol of passing on psychic energies and ideas (Olympic torch); the light of reason and freedom (Statue of Liberty). Today, however, it is more a symbol of light and consciousness that penetrates the dark (that which is not understood). Also, a symbol of honoring somebody (torchlight procession).
[3]Material aspects: In dreams, a torch can represent self-confidence. It can also suggest the need to be able to move forward, but at the same time carry our own light.
