Dreams are not always filled with pleasant events and joy; quite often the opposite happens, and fear fetters the dreamer, forcing him to think about the dream constantly. Naturally, there is a desire to understand what a dream can mean and what events in real life it warns about. A dream about strangulation can frighten anyone. After such a dream, it’s scary to even fall asleep again. Let's consider several options for interpreting such a dream in well-known dream books.
Dream Interpretation of Medea. Why choke in a dream?
if you dreamed of strangulation- come to terms with your not the best situation until the most successful times.
- choke someone- it’s worth getting rid of the conflict that gnaws at you.
- If you dreamed that you were using an action of a similar nature on an animal or person, it means that in real life there is a long-term conflict (with family, work colleagues or neighbors) that haunts you. The dream book urges you to make every effort to resolve it in order to stop the meaningless dispute.
- If you are a victim, then the dream book explains this by saying that you are subordinate to someone’s will, pressure is being put on you, the dream book advises you to come to terms with this for a while.
Dreaming of strangling a child in a dream - in real life it means starting a new business, however, the dreamer will soon lose interest in it, which is why such reluctance will lead to the failure of the project and the loss of significant investments. Lack of determination and performance may be associated with a nervous breakdown or resentment towards someone; also due to misunderstanding and disapproval of the new project by loved ones.
If you dreamed that children strangle the dreamer- a bad sign, you will become a victim of an unfulfilled dream, on which a lot of effort, time and money were spent. Your own child is strangling you, which means your heir will ruin your reputation and drag you into unpleasant affairs from which you will not be able to get out without losses.
If a woman uses similar actions towards a woman in a dream, it is worth thinking about her chosen one and her relationship with him. Due to attacks of jealousy on the part of the dreamer, a break in the relationship is possible, which will have a rather painful effect on health. This may also be due to the appearance of a rival, an envious friend who is trying to harm both her competitor’s career growth and her personal life.
If you dream that a woman is strangling a man, then in real life there is a woman who offended him. If the spouse or beloved woman strangles the dreamer- expect the worst, perhaps the chosen one will leave for another man. It could also mean that you are not paying enough attention to your other half. Wife strangles husband in his sleep- a woman’s desire to dominate. Such behavior can lead to divorce if she does not change her attitude towards her husband. If wife victim spouse- the dream book calls for paying attention to problems in the family.
If you see in a dream that strangling your parents- a symbol of tense relationships with them in real life. Perhaps childhood grievances take place in the dreamer’s life, and any attempts to forgive do not bring any results, which is why remorse follows. This may also be due to the dreamer’s feelings of shame towards his parents due to lack of time to visit them. If in real life there are no grievances towards the parents, it means that the person who committed the strangulation is in danger; the dreamer may be involved in a bad situation, make wrong decisions, which will entail a lot of trouble.
If you dream that such actions are applied to a dead person, while the criminal understands that he is dead, this means the impossibility of letting go of the past.
In this case, it is not important to know whether the victim was familiar to the dreamer; if so, the dream book explains this by saying that emotional experiences due to the loss of a loved one do not give the dreamer peace.
Choking an unfamiliar dead person in a dream means a desire to get rid of painful memories, however, with effort, you will be able to free yourself from the past and learn to live again.

Dream Interpretation of Dmitry and Nadezhda Zima
If a person tries to strangle someone in a dream, in real life he is worried about serious problems, the solution of which he constantly postpones because of his fear. If the dreamer does not pull himself together and deal with the accumulated problems, a “dark streak” awaits him. It is possible that significant financial difficulties will arise, and dismissal from work is also likely.
If the “owner” of the nightmare acts as a victim, someone attacks him and tries to strangle him, such a plot also does not bode well. It is likely that the dreamer in reality is missing out on a profitable deal due to his own indecision. Excessive caution does not allow him to succeed in life.
Esoteric dream book
Why dream of strangling someone in a dream, if we rely on the opinion of the compilers of the Esoteric Dream Book? This “guide” to the world of dreams claims that such dreams are almost always associated with the sphere of health. The “owner” of the dream should definitely undergo a medical examination and check the condition of the respiratory system.
The exoteric dream book does not exclude the possibility that a nightmare in which strangulation appears can be seen by an absolutely healthy person who does not experience illness in real life. In this case, you should definitely evaluate the comfort of your sleeping place. Sometimes frightening dreams are associated with such a banal problem as the wrong pillow.
If the dreamer knows the person he is trying to strangle in a dream, such a nightmare can warn of problems in his relationship with this person. Most likely, the “owner” of the dream is not satisfied with the actions of his “victim,” but he does not have the opportunity to prevent her. It is possible that this problem can be resolved through a heart-to-heart conversation, no matter how serious it may seem.
Dream Book of the Wanderer
Choking people in a dream - how does the Wanderer explain a nightmare with a similar plot? If the dreamer himself acts as a strangler, this may indicate that in real life the person will have an unpleasant task. Unfortunately, all attempts to shift this task onto someone else's shoulders will not be successful. Most likely, this case is related to the professional sphere, but problems in the family are also possible.
In their nightly dreams, people often see someone trying to kill them by strangulation. The Wanderer believes that this is a signal that he is in trouble. If the dreamer does not turn to relatives or friends for help in a timely manner, he is threatened with changes that negatively affect his quality of life.
Dream Interpretation of Medea
Interpretations of the famous sorceress Medea have also been combined into the popular strangling of a person in a dream, if you listen to the words of the sorceress? Medea believes that in reality the dreamer is worried about a long-lasting conflict that he cannot resolve. It could be a quarrel with loved ones, work colleagues, or housemates.
What does a dream warn about in which its “owner” becomes the victim? Medea argues that in real life, a person is bothered by the subordinate position in which he finds himself. However, it is unlikely that he will be able to get rid of the “bosses”, since circumstances are not favorable for this.
If you dreamed of a child
If a dreamer tries to strangle a person in a dream, realizing that his victim is a child, what does such a nightmare promise him? Such a dream predicts the start of a new business in real life, but the “owner” of the dream will quickly lose interest in his project. It is possible that this will result in the loss of some amount that was invested by him. Factors such as a nervous breakdown or resentment can lead to abandonment of a new business. Perhaps the dreamer will abandon his project without meeting understanding and approval from his immediate circle.
There are also nightmares in which children strangle the dreamer himself. Unfortunately, this dream does not bode well either. In reality, his “master” may turn out to be a victim of his own, which will absorb him completely, taking away his time, energy and money.
What do night dreams warn about if your own child acts as a strangler? It is very likely that in real life the heir will drag the dreamer into serious troubles, from which it will be difficult to get out without losses.
If you dreamed of a woman
To strangle a person in a dream, realizing that this is a representative of the fair sex - what does such a nightmare promise? The meaning of a dream depends on whether a man or a woman is its “owner”. If such a plot appears in a girl’s night dreams, in reality she should think about her relationship with her chosen one. It is possible that her constant attacks of jealousy, which have no basis, will cause a painful breakup.
A woman can strangle a representative of her sex in night vision for other reasons. The role of the victim can be played by a rival who hinders her career growth, or by an envious friend who tries to harm in every way. Also, a dream can only predict the imminent appearance of such a competitor.
If the dreamer is male, why dream of strangling someone, realizing that she is a woman? The plot of the nightmare indicates that in real life some lady intentionally or accidentally offended his “master.” If the role of a man’s victim in a dream is his wife or beloved, in reality he should prepare for the worst. It is possible that the chosen one has met someone else and is about to leave for him. The dream may also signal a cooling in the relationship and the need to devote more time to the other half.
Strangle your husband in a dream
Not only men strangle women in their nightmares, the fair sex also has similar dreams. What should a woman be afraid of if in her nightly dreams she tried to strangle her husband or lover? It is likely that in real life she is too eager to dominate and suppresses the masculine principle in her partner. The result of such behavior can be a painful breakup if the woman does not reconsider her attitude towards her chosen one.
Also, a female representative may dream of being strangled by her husband. Such a plot informs about problems in family relationships, which can take any form.
Why do parents dream?
To strangle a person in a dream - why would you have such a nightmare if the dreamer’s mother or father appears in the role of the victim? Night dreams with such an unpleasant plot may signal tension that has arisen in relations with parents. It is likely that a person still cannot forgive his mother or father for childhood grievances that poison his soul. Also, a dream can appear as a result of remorse that torments its “owner” in reality. Perhaps a person is ashamed that he devotes little time to his parents and offends them in one way or another.
What does such a nightmare predict if there are no mutual grievances or any tension in the relationship with the mother and father? In this case, a person who is in serious danger in real life may strangle one of the parents in a dream. Under the pressure of circumstances, the dreamer may make wrong decisions that can lead to unpleasant consequences.
Choking a dead man in a dream
Why dream of strangling someone, knowing that he is already dead? Nightmares with a similar plot are also not uncommon. Most likely, the dreamer cannot “let go” of his past, and again and again returns to events that happened a long time ago, which can be joyful or sad.
It is necessary to remember whether the victim injured in the dream was known to the strangler. If yes, then it is with this person, who has already left this world, that the dreamer’s emotional experiences are connected. Choking a stranger in a dream, knowing that he is dead, means an attempt to drive away painful memories. If a person makes an effort, he will be able to cope with this task, “free himself” from his past and begin to live in the present time.
Vanga's Dream Book
What should a dreamer who is trying to strangle a person in a dream prepare for? Vanga's dream book also offers an interesting interpretation of a nightmare with a similar plot. If the “owner” of a dream tries to strangle someone who is unfamiliar to him in real life, this is a good omen. It is likely that in reality a person has embarked or is about to embark on the path of getting rid of the shortcomings that prevent him from living.
A dream in which an attempt on the life of someone from one’s inner circle appears, committed by the sleeper himself, does not predict anything good. There is a high probability that people who acted as victims in night dreams will quarrel with the dreamer in real life. A quarrel can develop into a protracted conflict if a person does not take precautions.
The famous psychiatrist Sigmund Freud also has his own opinion about nightmares with a similar plot. According to him, dreams that involve strangulation can have different meanings. If a person dreams that he is trying to strangle his sexual partner, in reality he suffers from monotony in the intimate sphere. Also, a dream can be a manifestation of regrets experienced in real life that a partner no longer evokes the same passion.
If a sleeping man sees himself strangling a woman, in real life he is forced to restrain sexual aggression. A guy may dream of strangling a girl in his night dreams as a sign of an offensive refusal that he will receive from her in reality.
Dream Interpretation of Juno
Choking a person in a dream - what does this mean in a dream, if you believe the interpretation proposed? It can be assumed that in real life a person is forced to communicate with people whom he does not like at all. If it is impossible to change the environment, which would be the ideal way out of the situation, a temporary change of environment and a long rest will help solve the problem.
Various items
You can strangle someone in a dream not only with your hands. If the dreamer uses a chain to strangle a victim, in reality a gnawing sense of guilt causes him serious suffering. You should not leave such a nightmare unattended; it is better to remember which person was offended, and then apologize to him. Even if the relationship is not restored, the “owner” of the dream will be able to forgive himself and regain lost spiritual comfort.
Instructions
The only thing that can be interpreted as some kind of sign is a dream about suffocation that a healthy person had. If in a dream you have to suffocate for a long time and painfully, most likely this is a sign of a lack of finances, which occurs in the sleeping person in reality. Apparently, the issue of money is of paramount importance at the present time, and the one who causes such inconvenience in a dream is connected with this in one way or another. Most of the strength and energy in life is now aimed at solving this problem. Perhaps, through a dream, the subconscious mind gives a sign of nervous exhaustion on this basis and it’s time to give yourself a short break.
A dream about strangulation may mean that a person is currently in an intermediate state, perhaps on the verge of making some important decision for himself. The burden of accumulated problems can also be suffocating, and such a dream is a sure sign that at least some of them need to be resolved in the near future, otherwise unpleasant consequences cannot be avoided. A dream in which a person or someone else experiences suffocation can be a very real sign of incipient health problems. After such a dream, it would be a good idea to visit a doctor and check at least the cardiovascular system and respiratory organs.
If a person dreams of someone strangling him, this is often a sign that in reality this person is trying to cut off oxygen, exert pressure in one way or another, create obstacles and hindrances. If in a dream the face of the strangler is clearly visible, then in reality you need to take a closer look at his behavior and stop communicating or teach him a lesson. Such a dream may indicate internal struggle, uncertainty, and indecision. In a dream you can clearly see what waiting for everything to resolve itself can sometimes lead to, and in reality it is better to avoid this. Perhaps this dream comes to a person dependent on circumstances or on another person. Then it does not need interpretation - such a situation cannot but upset, especially if nothing can be done, and the dream will most likely be repeated again and again.
Some dream books interpret strangulation in a dream as an unpleasant reality of coming to terms with a subordinate position for an indefinite amount of time. If the strangler attacks you from behind and you cannot see his face, the dream warns of misfortune that will come from an unexpected direction. If you can’t make out the face and features of the one who is strangling, this is a sign of impending troubles that will require outside help. The same dream may mean that the person seeing the dream has a lot of ill-wishers and envious people. Perhaps this dream warns of a hopeless situation that a person may find himself in.
In the dream book, strangling as an action was written down with a very negative interpretation. This is understandable, the subconscious is trying to convey important information through a dream: in some matter they are “cutting off the oxygen.”
But, be that as it may, with a sufficient number of accompanying events recalled in a dream, it is possible to reveal a detailed answer to the interpretation. Usually, when you have a nightmare, people wake up sweating and often scream. After waking up, your body is pumping with adrenaline.
If you or I are strangled until we turn blue in the face in a dream, then none of us, immediately after waking up, will go to the Internet with an imposing step to find out why this could be a dream. Roughly speaking, a person is “shaking.”
And only then, when the psyche calms down, curiosity awakens. If you dreamed of a nightmare event, then the impressions will haunt you throughout the day. A person, of course, is most concerned about the moment of suffocation. And thoughts will revolve around this episode.
Why do people observe or experience suffocation in a dream?
Let’s look into the details of the dream, which will help you understand the essence of the difficulties, because they have a chance to manifest themselves in reality.
1. In a dream, you see from the side how a person is being strangled. The context of the dream is important.
- If you get scared and run away, then the subconscious mind speaks of the approaching danger that can be avoided. Then salvation lies in having time to discern the danger in real life.
- If you rush to help, but don’t have time to save the person. The criminal managed to escape. This means that well-being depends on the condition of the person who needs help. Most likely, you can even guess who has problems.
The main thing is to step back from the emotions of “what, I was attacked?!” Cool down the impressions with your mind: if you dreamed about it, then why would it matter? If it’s negative, then how to avoid problems.
When the mind is occupied by the analyst, emotions go away, you can begin to analyze the warning of the subconscious. Assess the situation: who in life threatens you personally, your business or social status. Sometimes, just knowing about it is enough to deal with a problem.
The only thing is that when you dream that a dead person is strangling, the dream should be regarded differently. The deceased is the personification of the departed. You are burdened by the past, get rid of the burden through forgiveness.
3. Dreams of involuntary suffocation. Sometimes in a dream you will see or feel how objects worn around the neck can involuntarily strangle you: chains, beads, amulets or amulets. What is it for? There are several possible answers.
The meaning of some items
- A chain with a cross squeezed my throat. Guilt. Remember, have you recently had the thoughts “someone doesn’t like me because...”? Remember who you recently offended. It may be worth asking for an apology.
- Expensive jewelry presses on your throat . This is a dream of satiety with the blessings of life. The best remedy is charity. But not in order to “be known and idolized.” No. Donate secretly.
- An amulet or amulet squeezed my throat. What you see in a dream can be interpreted as a deviation from principles. What did you prefer? Didn't they cheat?
- A tie or scarf puts suffocating pressure on your throat. When you dream about this, it speaks of accumulated worries and problems. Need to unload. If it’s work-related, then think about how much of the work you can delegate to your subordinates. If these are household chores, then you also need to think about what burden and how you can get rid of it.
If you are strangling
An equally shocking dream is when you yourself strangle someone. To determine why this is a dream, it is important to remember who was strangled.
2. Your victim is a dead man. The dead are the past, fight the ghosts of the sunken. Determine whether the deceased was a familiar person. If yes, then you know how to let go of the past. If the deceased is not familiar, then no matter who is being strangled, this is interpreted as follows: you are haunted by the past, and you are trying to forget about something.
3. Choke animals: cat, dog, rat, snake, etc. It doesn’t matter which animal you strangle, it always means that you are fighting with yourself, with your inner “dragons”.
Choking a cat. We know about the cat - it is a symbol of independence. If you kill a cat, you kill independence. This is one meaning.
Seeing a cat in a dream is almost always a mystical connotation. It is possible that you have extraordinary abilities, but when you kill a cat in a dream, it means that something is forcing you to give them up.
Choking a rat. Seeing a rat is an unpleasant experience in itself. Most likely, by strangling a rat in a dream, you will get rid of something vile and unpleasant. Seeing a rat means seeing theft, that is, you can prevent losses.
Catching a rat eating your pantry could mean you've discovered a traitor on your team. Accordingly, strangling a rat means getting rid of minor but unpleasant dirty tricks.
Choking a snake. Interpretations about the snake are contradictory: for some it is a symbol of wisdom, but for others it means an insidious attack. In any case, killing a snake is a negative sign that requires attention.
To strangle a snake for the purpose of self-defense means that among those whom you bestowed patronage and protection, you will find an ungrateful person. You will tell this “snake” everything you think about him.
In any case, despite the adrenaline after a nightmare, dreams are primarily a warning. If you use it correctly, the future event or situation will end happily. Author: Igor Vaskin
