Spiritually we could be at a point where knowledge and understanding are finally within our grasp at last. A throne, as a symbol of power, epitomizes this. A throne is a seat of authority or power. In dreams it can represent our ability to belong to groups, or even to society; we may need to take the lead in a project or scheme. The throne usually suggests that we have attained an element of control on all levels of existence, both spiritually and physically. When we dream of sitting on a throne, we are acknowledging our right to take authority. When the throne is empty, we are not prepared to accept the responsibility for who we are. It may be that we are conscious of a lack of parenting. When someone else is on the throne, we may have passed over authority to others.
