Dreams of captivity and escape often represent feelings of being trapped in your waking life, whether emotionally, mentally, or socially. The goblin creature can symbolize a fear or challenge that seems menacing and overwhelming. Helping your friends escape suggests a desire to support others or perhaps a fear of not being able to protect them in a difficult situation.
Getting stuck as you try to leave may indicate feelings of frustration or helplessness in your life, where you’re struggling to free yourself from a situation or relationship. The moment just before waking, with the goblin about to bite you, could signify a looming fear or anxiety that you are facing but have not yet confronted fully.
Consider reflecting on areas of your life where you feel trapped or challenged. This dream may be urging you to address these feelings and seek ways to gain control or find a solution. It could also be an invitation to evaluate your friendships and the dynamics within them, ensuring they are supportive and beneficial to your well-being.
