I ate my own hand..in a dream?

Question

2 or so nights ago, i dreamt that I ate my own right hand. Or rather - I was busy eating it - and then I realized that the situation was pretty out of hand. haha. But seriously, I was so freaked out because I realized my hand wouldn't grow back - I kind of gained control of the dream and traveled back in time where my hand was still in normal condition. I am right handed.

According to Dreamcrowd:

To dream that you are being devoured, indicates a loss in your identity or a fear of losing who you are. The dream may be a metaphor of being consumed by your own ambition or obsession. To dream that you are devouring something, represents the things that drive and motivates you.

To dream of your hands, represents your relationship to those around you and how you connect with the world. Hands serve as a form of communication. Perhaps you need to lend out a helping hand to someone. In particular, the left hand symbolizes your graciousness and feminine, receptive qualities. And the right hand symbolizes masculine, active attributes. It may also be a pun for some decision or something being "right". To dream that you are holding hands with someone, represents your connection with that person. Your dream may also reflect anxieties about losing touch with him/her or that you are drifting apart. To dream that you hands are injured, denotes an attack on your ego. To dream that your hands are clasped or closed, signifies unity, completeness, acceptance or agreement. On a more negative note, it may suggest that you are close-minded, ungiving or unwilling to help. To dream that you have unusually large hands, denotes much success in achieving your goals. To dream that your hands are hairy or rough, implies your lack of gentleness in dealing with others. You may be too brash and abrasive. To see blood on your hands, signifies that you are experiencing some sort of guilt. To dream that you are washing your hands, represents a worrisome issue that you need to work through. Alternatively, it suggests that you are no longer taking responsibilities in some matter. You are letting go and getting things out of your system.

Answer 2

Your right-hand, the hand that you depend on, seems to be a symbol of your-self. Are you Independent? And do you feel a little self-destructive? Not as if you are destroying your life, but you might feel that choices you have made concerning your life are setting you back, which in turn might make you feel scared and insecure. You might not be where you could have been in life right now! But you can gain control of things like your dream if you do not freak out about the (what ifs) negative outcomes in your life. Just a thought!

Well, you've got to understand, this is your brain stuffing a handful of things in a blender and making a smoothie for you to drink. In this case, it's not really saying anything at all, not stating a fear or dream or... Anything. It was just a random 'brain smoothie', nothing to worry about.

Answer 4

I believe its making reference to the saying " Dont bite the hand that feeds you" Maybe in your waking life you were about to do something that could have serious consequences for you so it was a warning to "Think before you do something you might regret"
