Ten Thousand Dream Dictionary

1- To be stabbed in a dream indicates our ability to be hurt.

To stab someone is, conversely, to be prepared to hurt. Since a stab wound is penetrative it obviously has connections with aggressive masculine sexuality, but also with the faculty of being able to get straight to the point.

2- When we make ourselves vulnerable we are open to being hurt. Often a stab is a quick way of achieving a result.

For instance, to be stabbing at something rather than somebody would suggest the need to break through some kind of shell or barrier in order to proceed.

3- When we realise that we can use particular skills, they can assume an almost ritualistic feeling. Fighting and stabbing can then be appreciated as a means of spiritual discipline (as in martial arts). We need to understand appropriate behaviour.

My Dream Interpretation

If you dream of being stabbed, you may be experiencing feelings of defensiveness and lack of power. It can also mean you feel betrayed by someone you trusted.

To dream that you stab someone indicates your fear of betrayal and your untrusting nature. You may be too much on the defensive.
