Dreaming of a knot can suggest a condition of energy concentration. Whether it’s an intertwining of a rope or shoelace or even the difficulty of walking in the face of a situation, the fact is that the knot represents the feeling of feeling trapped and stagnant.

Understand possible applications of dreaming about a knot:

DREAM THAT YOU ARE STUCK IN SOME KNOT

Being trapped in an object that ties you in a knot, this may represent that you are in a phase or situation where you feel trapped or very focused on something. And find it difficult to see something beyond that, to find a solution, to free yourself from this problem.

DREAMING THAT YOU YOURSELF TYPE IN A KNOT

If you are the one who ends up tying the knot, it could be that you are directly involved in a process of self-repression and self-sabotage.

DREAM THAT SOMEONE HOLDS YOU IN A KNOT

If you suffer the action of being imprisoned by someone, it will be worth checking in you behaviors and habits that are well known in the way of being of that person who ties you in the knot. And how much such attitudes may be disturbing you in life today or in dealing with a situation. This interpretive look also applies to the fact that you are tying someone up: that is, you may be preventing certain characteristics (which are striking in that person’s personality) from being expressed by you at this stage.

DREAM THAT YOU ARE STUCK IN A BLIND KNOT

If it is a “blind knot”, this could indicate how much you really feel blocked and stuck in some situation or relationship. And if you untie it easily, it may be that the solution will be found by you soon or you are already aware and applying it.

DREAM THAT REACTS TO THE KNOT

Your attitude towards the knot can also be revealing to characterize your way of reacting to a situation or issue in which you feel trapped or too concentrated. If you give up or rebelfor example, can thus be faced with these circumstances and issues on which he focuses. Look at it with maturity and seeks the solution in the dream, this reflects in their everyday life.

DREAMING THAT A SPECIFIC PART OF THE BODY IS STUCK

Furthermore, if a specific part of your body is knotted, it can be very important in terms of detecting what is stuck in you. For example, if it’s your hands, you might be blocked in terms of working, producing, doing what needs to be done. If it’s your legs, you may be having trouble following a certain path, going in a certain direction, moving towards your goals.

REACHING NEW LEVELS

It is interesting to notice a symbolic representation that the Dictionary of Symbols reveals to us: “The knot is also that of the Chinese bamboo, whose vertical succession marks a hierarchy of states along the sky-earth axis, very similar to that of the tantric chakras (such as bamboo of nine knots of the Taoists). Piercing the knots is indeed one of the essential experiences of yogic realization” (page 637).

In other words, a knot can represent a stage to be overcome in order to reach a new level of consciousness, maturity and self-knowledge.

MEANINGS OF DREAM WITH KNOT IN SOME RELIGIONS

It is worth remembering the expression “it’s tied up”, which spread in society from what some evangelical churches implemented, being seen as a way to prevent evil spirits from influencing our lives. Furthermore, it is a practice similar to that of Islamic tradition, in which the knot appears as a symbol of protection. To conjure up the evil eye, the Arabs tied their beards in knots.

Therefore, the knot is also a symbolic structure that represents the attempt to prevent something bad from happening to us.
