Owen SterlingStrangling in a dream is the mind’s way of processing a sudden stoppage of vital movement or the forced silence of a core impulse. This process of sorting through recent tensions often uses the sensation of constriction to signal where a vital force is being hindered by external or internal pressures. The brain rehearses the feeling of being blocked to identify where the flow of expression or life-force meets an obstacle.
When the dreamer is choking another in a dream, the mind is attempting to manage a conflict by suppressing a voice that stands in the way. Being choked in a dream reveals the helplessness that arrives when a force prevents any way to breathe or act. These patterns of constriction show where the ability to act is being tested or where a necessary breath is being held back.
The dream shows the struggle to keep one’s own space or voice. The recognition of these pressures provides a way to see where the breath of life is being constricted.

Owen SterlingInterpreter interprets your dreams
Many people believe a frightening dream announces something, when more often the brain was simply sorting the days just before it. During the night the mind files what was carried over from recent hours, and what gets filed loudest is what was felt most. A rough night leaves a residue by morning that fades with daylight. Nothing was sent. The sleeper was working, and the work is done.
