Dreaming of swallowing a needle - dream meaning with inherited lore
Swallowing a needle may be connected to holding in unspoken words or discomfort that remains in your heart.
A small needle enters your mouth or is swallowed by mistake. A tight, frightening feeling may linger, as if it were stuck in your throat.
Korean lore: Traditionally, swallowing a needle in a dream has sometimes been linked to slips of the tongue or worries held inside. It may be seen as showing that something troubling you does not go down easily. (In folk dream interpretations, the mouth and needle are sometimes read together as images of words, rumors, and worries lodged in the heart.)
Through the mind: You may have this dream when you have held back something you wanted to say at work or with family, or when something you already said keeps bothering you. Recent discomfort in your throat or stomach may also have appeared as a sensation in the dream.
