Paralyzed

Dreams of being paralyzed or unable to move often reflect the natural paralysis of the body during REM sleep, especially in dreams that involve intruders and being attacked, reflective of a physiological problem or a sleep disorder known as sleep paralysis.. Dreams being paralyzed can also reflect concerns that you will “not be able to reach” your next destination. Conversely, dreams of being unable to run away from, or to hit an opponent, indicate feelings of powerlessness in one’s waking life. Whom are you running from, or struggling against? The dream suggests a new strategy is required to manage this problem.
