The Dream Book of Self-Knowledge

Noose

  • symbolizes destructive sexual and emotional relations bordering on absolute servitude.
  • when a noose or rope symbolizes in a dream a very strong sexual relation, a mere glance at such a noose or rope can lead to unexpected sexual arousal and with men to spontaneous ejaculation (seminal emission), even if the dream does not contain any other erotic image.
  • a hanged person in a noose: a very positive dream that represents the end of a dependency or the end of a sexual or emotional bond that the dead person embodied in life with his traits; see Hanging.
  • seeing a lot of nooses: the unconscious is telling the dreamer that there is a need to review his sexual and emotional relations in order to rise to a higher level of experience (in processing sexual relations to the emotional level and in processing emotional relations to the spiritual level).
  • untying: confirms tolerance toward others.
  • Severing, destroying or discarding or seeing this: detachment from earthly, sexual and emotional bonds.
