Handcuffs are most often interpreted as a symbol of limitations, powerlessness and stagnation. Perhaps you cannot cope with a certain situation in your life or you feel that you do not have the necessary tools to do so. Sometimes the dream of handcuffs also refers to the feeling of being trapped in a relationship. In another sense, handcuffs can also have a physiological basis, e.g. if we cry in bedding.
What does it mean to dream about handcuffs?
Seeing handcuffs in a dream means that some things you put off for later will now become so urgent that it may take longer to deal with them than you initially assumed.
If you are handcuffed in a dream, it means that in the past you will manage to avoid responsibility for certain offenses, which will lead you to live in the belief that someone might discover your secret and cause you problems. In addition, the dream of being in handcuffs is a warning to try to avoid reckless and unreasonable behavior.
When someone else is handcuffed it means you should always rely on yourself first. Of course, it is worth using someone else's experience and advice, but the final decision should be yours.
Handcuffing someone in a dream means that you tend to judge people too quickly. Perhaps it is because you are guided by your type of stereotypes. Often for this reason you also make mistakes, which means that you have to make a lot of effort to clarify and rectify the whole situation.
If you dream about a policeman handcuffing you, it may mean that someone around you is using you or you feel that you have completely lost control over a certain area of ââyour life. Perhaps you feel that you are no longer making your own decisions or that you lack independence in your life.
When you are handcuffed to a bed or radiator, it is a sign that you are willing to sacrifice a lot for your loved ones. Therefore, you do not regret any of your decisions, because your loved ones are the most important to you.
A dream in which you release yourself from handcuffs means that you have a very strong psyche and willpower. This is a sign that you are not succumbing to others and do not have any harmful addictions. It may also indicate that in a crisis situation, you always try to think clearly, instead of succumbing to unnecessary emotions.
