Being restrained in a dream means your ability to move through the world as you wish is currently being limited. This dream shows a time when the natural flow of your own choices is met by a boundary that you did not set. It is like trying to walk through a doorway that has grown too narrow for your shoulders.
A force is acting upon you that makes it difficult to act on your own terms. This weight makes you feel that your own hands are no longer yours to command. I feel this stillness in my own bones when the day becomes too heavy to carry. You have the strength to wait for the pressure to shift, dear.
Being tied up in a dream adds the sense that your capacity for movement has been taken from you. The knots mean that your ability to take the first step has been taken from you.
Being held down or physically restrained means the dream carries a weight that makes you feel helpless against what is happening. This pressure is a power so great that it keeps you from rising, turning your own movement into a struggle against what is pressing you into the ground.
For its more general meaning: Dream about being trapped
My coworker had her hands and feet tied and she was crawling towards me happily in the open gym. Others may have been doing the same.
Dear Reader,
Your dream means resources, energy and tendency. This dream states you are using the resources that are available to you. There is a blockage to the flow of your spiritual energy. You have the tendency to let your emotions get out of control and lose your temper.
