The Way of Dreams and Visions

by Colette Toach
General Meaning: If positive a net represents mass evangelism or connecting with others.

To be part of a group.

• Negatively it speaks of the snare of the enemy.

• Positive: Depending on the context of your dream, a net could be positive or negative.

• Negatively speaking a net represents being bound, restricted and being under bondage.

• Positively speaking, it could represent evangelism (in the case of catching fish), prosperity and provision.

Visions Positive:

One of our students shared once how the Lord kept showing them a vision of a net over their bed. They searched and searched but could not find the interpretation to this vision.

• It did not seem negative, yet still there was no interpretation. Then one day as he browsed the Internet, the Lord led him to AMI Network. All along the Lord was indicating that he was to become part of a network of believers and ministry leaders.

• So in this case the net spoke of linking up with other believers around the world.

• Seeing a net in a fishing picture speaks of evangelism, the Lord bringing provision and blessing.

• Speaking of Provision and Blessing • John 21:11 Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land full of great fishes, a hundred and fifty three: and even though there were so many, yet the net was not broken.

Negative: In vision I have often seen the enemy using a net to snare and to steal.

• Often when we have been trusting the Lord for provision, I have seen the enemy having horded all our provision into his net. I would then speak forth and demand that he let go of that provision! • When giving personal ministry, I have also seen people bound up in nets. Usually the nets speak of negative words and curses spoken over the person.

• It could also be because of personal sin and getting involved in things they should not have. And so they have given Satan license to bind them and bring a curse into their lives.

• Referring to a net laid by those who speak negative words and a curse over someone: • Psalms 35:7 For without cause have they hidden for me their net [in] a pit, [which] without cause they have dug for my soul.

Dreamers Dictionary

by Garuda
Symbol: The net is a symbol of apprehension, confinement, and anxiety.

Vision: Dreaming about fishing with a net: you want to accomplish something, but believe that success is only a matter of luck. Getting tangled in a net: you have been tempted to do something that was unfair to someone else. In a woman’s dream, the net suggests an unconscious wish to be “caught in a man’s net.” In a man’s dream, it also stands for the desire for a relationship. I lave you cast your net? Who or what do you want to catch?

Depth Psychology: A net represents erotic and or sexual needs, the desire for emotional connections, sexual loyalty (getting caught in the net of love), or “finding a good catch.” Be honest, which of the above applies to you?

The Big Dictionary of Dreams

by Martha Clarke
A net serves to hunt, fish, or trap something. In dreams, it reflects the need to have power over other things, be they people, feelings, or objects.

If you dream that you fall into a net, if means that you feel trapped or defenseless, in an emotional relationship or in a certain work situation. In case you dream of a fishing net full of fish, it means that you should have patience to collect the fruits of your labor. On the contrary, if it is empty, it implies that you find yourself in an adverse circumstance. (See HUNT, THIEF, FISH, and FISHING) According to popular tradition, the constellations are the net imposed by heaven so that no one can leave the universe.
