Held hostage by a thief Dream Meaning and Dream Interpretation

To dream about Held hostage by a thief explained:

May symbolize feeling robbed of something or being afraid that someone will steal my ideas, identity, etc.

May suggest feeling powerless or having lost control of a situation.

Dreaming that you are a hostage suggests that you feel vulnerable. You feel trapped and unable to go anywhere because of some problem in your waking life.

Dreaming of being a thief, for example while in the act of stealing something or being arrested and locked up in jail, symbolizes possible humiliation or a downward spiral of sorts. A momentary lapse of judgment could put you in a compromising or embarrassing situation. Alternatively, you could go down a path of self-destruction, maybe rack up a lot of debt because of dependency or addiction to certain substances or habits. As a result, losing control of your life would lead to depression.

A thief caught in the act of stealing then handcuffed or jailed by policemen serves as a stern warning from your subconscious about your tendency to make hasty decisions or jump into conclusions. A bit of forethought and deliberation would significantly improve your chances of success. As much as possible, before doing something risky or careless, maybe give yourself some time to think it through or *sleep on it* so you would have a clearer view of the consequences of each action or decision you need to make.
