Straight Jacket
This has many possible associations – being out of control; being socially threatening; crazy and frightening behaviour, or feeling completely restricted and unable to express your feelings and motivations. This might include a sense of inadequacy.
Useful Questions and Hints:
Is this a self imposed restriction or imposed by other people – and remember that other people in dreams are usually aspects of myself? So if it is imposed by someone else, what attitude, belief system or moral code do they represent that is the source of the restriction.
Why is the jacket being used, and can I see a connection with that?
If this is on someone else, am I applying it and why?
