Dreaming of a Girdle

girdle · mixed

A girdle is about influence and honour: a new one brings honour, an old or tight one holds you back.

What happens in the dream

  • A new girdle: honours
  • Others wearing velvet or jewelled girdles: you may come to value wealth above integrity
  • Being given a girdle: honours will be bestowed on you
  • Wearing a girdle that pinches: scheming people are influencing you
  • Wearing an old girdle: hard work and trouble

How you felt

  • A sense of constriction: the dream may reflect pressure or an influence that's too close
  • Pride: you may be hoping for recognition

Ask yourself

  • Who or what is squeezing me right now?
  • What matters more to me: success, or staying true to my values?
