Complete Dictionary of Dreams

by Dr. Mıchael Lennox
The spine is the center of the physical structure of any mammalian body, and as such, it is symbolic of the core around which all else is organized. When the spine is in alignment, all movement works well, and when it is not, breakdown begins to occur. In this way, anything that is happening with your spine or the spine of a person or animal in your dream is asking you to consider what is at the very center of your thinking about something and how well it is supporting you. Look at your beliefs. To be spineless is to lack all conviction, so if this is featured in your dream, you may want to consider that your belief system is in serious question.

The Dream Books Symbols

by Betty Bethards
Support; the most important part of the physical structure. Whether rigid or flexible determines your use of the life force, God force, or kundalini energy flowing through the body. The spine houses the kundalini, nerve centers, and is our key to well being and aliveness.

If you appear spineless, or have no backbone, you are not taking self-responsibility, standing up for your own beliefs.

See Body, Kundalini, Snake.
