Dreaming of a Yoke
yoke, bondage · mixed
A yoke signals bowing to others' ways, though well-matched oxen promise a happy marriage.
What happens in the dream
- Healthy cattle yoked in harmony: a happy marriage, soon for those who are single
- Seeing a yoke: you will reluctantly conform to others' customs and wishes
- Yoking oxen: those who depend on you will heed your advice; failing to yoke them: worry over a spendthrift friend
- Cattle straining against the yoke: marital trouble
How you felt
- A sense of constraint: the dream may reflect heavy obligations
- Partnership: you may be thinking about what it means to pull together
Ask yourself
- Which constraint am I accepting without choosing it?
- Who am I pulling in the same direction with?
