If I had a dream like that, I would probably interpret to indicate to me that my life is potentially moving fast, maybe too fast (but you didn't mention "out of control") and that I am having a hard time controlling it (but not failing, just having a hard time) and that there is a force that is trying to control it for me, or slow me down. Maybe that force is a different aspect of my personality that may not want to move so fast so I might be trying to slow myself down. Or maybe I am feeling like some outside influence is trying to slow me down. I believe that much of what happens to us is of our own creation so if something is wrong, I try to figure out first if I am the one sabotaging myself. If I suspect not, then I will look to outside sources.

Here's my interpretation of your dreams.
Chase dreams refer to those dreams that revolve around a pursuit, driving something towards or away from something else (in most cases, you). They could also be referring to a hurried situation or decisions. These dreams are usually recurring and display forms of anxiety or fear.
A common example, not being able to run in your dream is symbolic that you will soon have to face the problem and won't be allowed to run any longer, because circumstances have come to this point.
Ask yourself the following questions:
1. What is significant to you about this chase? Do you think the chase is meaningful or not?
2. Do these chase dreams link with circumstances in your waking life? If so, what?
3. What is the dominant emotion you have in your dream?
4. Are you the chaser, or are you being chased?
5. Are you alone, or are others involved?
6. What is the overall outcome of the chase?
As noted with recurring dreams, anxiety dreams and nightmares, once you take control (and you can by acknowledging the true representation of the symbols) you can rise above the problem. This is what your subconscious is trying to tell you. Handle your real life situation before it grows out of control.

this indicates whatever u want it to indicate. I mean, no one knows except you. It could mean that maybe one day u will be in a situation where all of your force is held back. It depends on you urself as well. Some people choose to let these dreams be. I personally try to figure out my dreams, but half of the time i dont even remember them so i do not bother. But if you are into the whole spirituality stuff, then maybe u should see a psychic if you think it might be a sign.

Ahhhhh... I have actually looked up the meaning for many of my dreams. Some were so traumatizing - I would wake in a sweat and not be able to go back to sleep until I checked it out.
Visit http://www.dreammoods.com
Take the "highlights" of your dream and ... basically pull out keywords like: running, slowed down, invisible force, legs tied, gravity
and do a search for their meanings. It will eventually tie together and show you which sign is a positive one and which is negative and why we might have dreams like this.
Hope this helps!

Don't pay much attention to your dreams, if you do they make more difficult for you to move on in your life. But if you what to know it could mean that you have to stop and think to make a good decision in your life... stop running, don't rush into things. Or you will have to pay and get stuck with a problem.
I'm not an expert interpreting dreams but that is what I think about yours.

It kinda depends.
People say "don't listen to dreams", but i have to disagree. dreams are subconscious renditions of the rest of your mind. for instance, this dream...it probably means that you're under alot of stress, and simply are overwhelmed. there's some possibility that it's foreshadowing something that you know is coming, but don't consciously know of. for instance, the holidays. Christmas/Hanukkah shopping is hectic, and is the part of the season that scarcely anyone likes. you catch my meaning?
Don't put dreams off as invalid, senseless ramblings of a sleeping mind, but also, don't count on them too much.

Maybe there is a decision or something in your life that you need to slow down and think about...
