Dreaming of being trapped in ropes, cloth or cables shows a fear of being tied up to something in life. This is symbolic rather than actual. This dream shows an express fear in life and feeling that their are too many commitments in your life. This can signify a feeling of entrapment in financial or family related issues.
This means that we cannot free ourselves, dreaming of being trapped by falling objects such as a tree shows that we feel that emotional pressures are threatening to alter our emotional well being. If whatever is trapping you is making you feel worried in your dream then you need to make sure that you accept the consequences for whatever comes your way in your life. If you are in prison or if you are locked in a room then you need to evaluate what locked you in.
This can signify being cut off from the world, and discovering who imprisoned you can give you a clue to how you are feeling inside. You may discover that you are trapping others or yourself in a situation, through a craving or something that will not provide you with what you actually want in life.
