Dream Dictionary Arrested

The symbol of being arrested in a dream, especially when it involves respectable strangers, can wield a complex array of interpretations. This arresting image—no pun intended—can reflect the dreamer's internal state of conflict regarding the urge for change versus the trepidation of potential missteps. The act of arrest can represent a stopping force, whether self-imposed or external, that inhibits progress or the pursuit of new ventures.

Viewing upstanding individuals being detained can symbolize one's own concerns about taking risks and venturing into the unknown. It might signify that the fear of failure is crippling the dreamer's ability to push forward with their plans. The figures being arrested act as mirrors to the dreamer's potential or actual obstacles. There is a sort of struggle depicted in these dreams, a tussle between the desire to break free and explore new horizons, and the shackling worry of falling short.

However, the narrative shifts when the arrested parties resist. This defiance against authority can then represent a powerful, emboldening force within the dreamer, ready to surmount any hindrance in the path to success. Rather than succumbing to fear, the act of resistance is a triumphant rally for the dreamer's resolve to push through the barriers, celebrating each step taken towards the fruition of their endeavors.

Example of a typical dream with this symbol and interpretation:
Jonathan dreams that he’s watching a group of sharply dressed individuals as they are abruptly handcuffed by police officers. They don't go quietly, shouting in protest and struggling against their restraints.

Interpreting Jonathan's dream, the arrest could suggest that he might be at a crossroads with his own life, subconsciously contemplating a significant leap of faith, perhaps in starting a business or changing careers. The stark image of constraint mirrors his latent anxieties about the venture's stability and success. Yet, the resistance of the strangers could reveal an undercurrent of determination within Jonathan, a readiness to combat the fears that may deter him from his path. Their refusal to submit easily to the arrest could serve as a metaphor for Jonathan's own fighting spirit, his inner resilience in the face of adversity. This dream propels him towards the realization that while failure is a possibility, the willingness to strive valiantly in pursuit of his goals is a victory in itself.

I had a dream that a woman came to my compound looking for me when she eventually saw she told me am under arrest, she showed me a paper and an arrest warrant but I told her I don't know anything about the crime . I pleaded with her to forgive me but she did not answer , I even went to my mum she did not even answer me so as she was about taking away I woke up

I had a similar dream but instead my mom I told friends and they didn’t know what to do.

Anyways I pick the phone up and I couldn't tell at 1st who it was. She was being weird on the phone and i could sense she was mad. Anyways figured out it was my gf. Anyways we talked and caught up that night. Went for a drive and parked up somewhere. We was in a caravan. We ended up having sex and I could hear people outside the window. Anyways someone comes through the window and I asked them to get out. And then there was this girl. Looked Straight at me with evil eyes and she says no. Anyways they leave ( there was 3 of them mind you ) so yeh they leave and me and my gf went to sleep. Then In my dream I wake up with a bad feeling and woke my gf up saying we have to leave now. As I open the door the 3 evil women had set a few things on fire around the caravan. When I walked out the Door to put the flames out, the cops come. And one of the cops reaches into his pockets and pulls out drugs and frames me for it. I was trying to tell the other cops it wasn't mine and I had been framed... lil bit more happened after that but not much more. What does it mean?

a dream where I was watching football outside an enclosed area. There were lots of people watching also. Suddenly cops came and arrested me with others around me. Everyone else was spared. It a long dream but my concern is why me and some unknown friends? They got us arrested for no apparent reason and am forced to tell my parent that I did drugs when I reach home.

I had a dream where I was with friends in a building/hotel, we had chicks all over and I had a chick in my room 28, but every-time I come out of that room I get lost around the hotel, and I have this feeling inside of me,"Let me go inside and give this babe one" hahahah.

I didn't find that room, in the process I got to the front and I saw police men, arresting everyone, some of my friends were arrested and I was confused for the cook of the hotel.

After they left, I was looking for my room, I even entered an abandoned building in that same compound,I came out, On my way back to the reception to complain, I saw this same police and the people they arrested, We chated and they continued(We chated because I helped one of them warm his stew back at the hotel), I went back to the reception and then I woke up.

So I had a dream just now about meeting someone truly attractive and honest, she worked for some sort of charity and by how she was conducting herself, I would say she is some sort of manager. , in the middle of the street my first encounter with her is her taking down another women from a rival company like herself, telling her to get out of the area, the other women was out of control, she looked as if She was unfit for such a job, I then wanted to meet her but she rejected telling me she is too busy helping people, so we parted. Then later on my mother introduced me to one of her employers, he was sick and one of the agents she did not noticed, I was unaware that he worked for her but I taken the favour to helping the man. I then meet her face to face again and without recognising me she put me up to the tasks of looking after children's, I taken those little people everywhere I usually go, I went to my local gym and surprisingly there was a children section in my gym I did not know of, so I just let them play there. Bought them drinks, taken then arcades and other child like enjoyments. I did the task, she then grew some suspicion on me because she never seen me before so she asked who I am and I claimed the employee's name that she have in her database, she became comfortable with me, I then wanted to give her the same treatment as she was giving others, the attention that someone cares. So I was always around her, aiding her and assisting her, she had the doubt that I was not her employee so she continued to pursue the truth out of me, but at the same time I wanted to get the truth out of her, so I asked her what was her intentions of doing this job? She replies that it was because of her dead older sister she could not have helped (her older sister looked like some sort of drug addict) so I somehow enter in her past when she was a little girl (that still grieved upon her dead sister and told her "everything is going to be ok" I enter in her sisters bedroom and showed (the younger version of her) that her sister is still alive and we should give her some bedtime drink/story, at first she was stunned with a form of shock and disbelief, that the person she presumed was dead was actually still alive and in her house, she was looking at me as if I am some sort of god sent angel and hugged me. I hugged her back like she was my little sister that I already had, I woke up from my dream within this dream, and she was there, beside me with a facial expression of relief that I was awake, automatically I became defensive because of the fraudulent lie I said from the very beginning of encountering her, the man that I taken over for, was working again, and she was still unaware that I was not a true worker for her charitable group. So I was in too deep to try and leave the workfeild because she was monitoring me 24/7, I then stayed within my house where I receive from her directly telling me that I was supposed to take a day off from work yet the real employee was still working and confirmed by the local community that he is there by his presence. She asked me in the letter with a question and by her handwriting within this question it was some form of daunt, "who are you?" Again she asked... I avoided the letter completely and shut my house, all I thought about was the strong exterior women with a boss determined, powerful by will individual with a majestic look, but the interior was the sensitive traumatised girl that I helped her dark past (which she also recollected in her dream that I helped her), I went to bed thinking I could dream myself out of this dilemma, yet again I woke up and she was there again, with a worried body expression, as if over all of that power it was that sensitive girl I helped all these years. It was a beautiful catastrophic nightmare I wish it was because it was so vivid, I turned to try to sleep the other side when at the same time, The grown women got up from my bedroom chair And before I know it (she was aiming for my cheek) but kissed half of my lips. (By accident) I could not believe it, I was thinking this was the worst best experience of my life. She left my room and th area of where my lips connected with hers is still effected even after her presents. At that point I did not care about life, but a a morning I woke up within the dream and there was a drone outside my window, I knew at this moment I am done. Probably in prison for life for potential prosecution from a lot of parents by looking after their children's, by taking someone else's persona and many more felonies. I heard a knock on my door which I did not wanted to answer, I woke up in today's time, this world, as I am typing this!!!, I knew I was going to become arrested in that dream but I still wanted to find out my fate, that grown women I grew a fond of (a form of like) and in real life I tried to go back to sleep, the scenario of me jumping out of my window tried to make a run for it, I woke up again knowing this will not end well and lo and behold I stumble upon this page. I started writing this at 6:23am. It is now7:40am and I finished writing this. By dream interpretation this page is highly accurate. Everything said in this website was true to some extent, I lack control and even control over the people that are out of control in my current life.

What does mean to dream that?

This interpretation of my dream of being arrested is dead on! In waking life, I am having exactly these sort of issues with my boss as described in this interpretation.

BTW des anyone kno what this means?

I had a dream once that my dad was getting arrested because he was teaching me how important the laws were. He was committing crimes and then a police officer came and brought him to jail. He game a headband to me that said " Hanahboo & Dad Forever "..yes my name is Hanah. I was waiting for my dad to get out..I would stay for 7 years if I had to... and he gets out 2 hours later that when he was arrested! It was a really happy/sad moment. Then the secretary called on him and she said "accused of stealing, pickpocketing and criminal conversation" and I said "He was only trying to teach me about the laws and how important they are". She seemed to understand and let him out. After we went to my real house and I woke up(IN REAL LIFE)!

Just to add, I woke up when my betrayer/informer sister arrives

I dreamed that I was wrongly accused of something I didn't do, and later, as I realised, my sister too (I don't have a sister in real life). My "dad" (who looks nothing like my real dad) offered to bring me out for a walk in the park (same as an actual park I am going to in real lifr), and I was going home with him. My sister arrives, also being chased (she looks like an actress I know) and we both hide under a sink, I gave her trinkets and jewellery to remember by and for her to sell in case she gets in trouble.
In a previous dream, my mom and I were walking in a tunnel and we picked up a couple of boxes with women's clothes and makeup, and gave it to the lost and found/authorities.
In real life, I was talking about how difficult it is to live with my perfectionist dad and how overprotective my mom was, and was also excited about the next day's activities causing insomnia at first, which may be a contributing factor.

i had a dream where my brother was hiding from police officers, and so him and I got arrested. I begged my mom to please get me out. I woke up crying that morning. What do s my dream mean?

Is your brother okay? Did anything happen to him I dream about my brother getting arrest too...im so scared..

I dreamt of being arrested when i was in an uncompleted building with a girl ready to enjoy ourselves

I dreamt that me and my sister were just sitting in park at the stop light, then all of a sudden I say "omg why are we just sitting here" but I put the van in drive. .I remind you the light is red. when I tried to move forward a little I go too much and just.decided to keep going so I ran the light, next thing I know there's cops and I tell my sister to switch sits with me because I have no license and she does. But we get caught and they try to arrest me but I resist . The officers were hot though. I'm not understanding this dream. ?

I dreamt about being arrested by police because I stole a spoon in a restaurant and suddenly got caught. My mom accompanied me to the police station but I told a police officer that I was told to steal that item by my friends so that I demanded all my friends to be arrested too. My mum said she have to pay me to get out of jail and she didn't have money. My friends started hating me because of me , they were involved and arrested to the prisons. All it seems like the interpretation is quite right because recently I suggested my parents for a business plan (I requested for that budget to start ) but they refused. So that I thought about being cooperated with my friends but they are hesitate.

Is that even English? Its very hard to understand your non-cohesive sentences.
Bring on the Newspeak, George Orwell, its 1984!'-)

How do you know if English is even this persons' first language?

You want to talk grammar? The word is "it's" with an apostrophe, as opposed to, "its" which indicates possession of something. So, you've either misspelled that word, or used it inappropriately. And considering the utter lack of humblness you've shown, I'd bet the latter.

Seriously,you sound like stuck up, ignorant brat? How does that feel?

Some people need to grow up and examine themselves before pointing fingers at others. Or at least know your own grammar before correcting someone whom you are not familiar with. Better yet, don't point fingers at all. It's annoying and rude...and chances are highly likely that you have many faults of your own.

Shut up and learn English, Fiona.

I had a very distinct dream. My mom was walking out of the VFW carrying a box filled with christmas Decorations. It was very late, my mom, wearing her girls on the run t-shirt and yoga pants and a pair of Nike shoes. She runs out to the car. ( I didn't see nothing of it at the time because she runs on a usual basis.) and me, I had no idea what I was wearing. I just followed her to the car. She pushed the box in and told me to climb in. As I did that, 3 police criusers pull into the parking lot. 3 men step out, all in their deputy uniforms. They go up to my mom, they ask her to take her shirt off. And there she stands Half naked in the VFW parking lot. I quickly walk away, I come across a glass window with a Japanese man in pink shirt, and a leather belt, and cakeys. Was holding 2 little boys both in pink tuxedoes back. He stared at me. He had dark brown eyes. When I turned around the police were placing zip ties on my mothers hands. I screamed! But no one heard. It was as if It was a dream I wasn't part of. And the I wake up screaming Mom, no! Can anyone please tell what this means!! I can't dream out of my head and it hurts to think about it. Thanks, -Zoe
p.S please answer as quickly as you can! I don't want to have another!
