The windpipe carries breath and voice, so it stands for the freedom to live and to speak. Pressure on it is read as feeling silenced or short of room.
Does the traditional reading fit your dream, or did it mean something else to you?
My Cosmic Code has a private dream journal. Write a dream down and the app picks out the symbols in it, shows what dream books say about them and, over time, which words recur across your entries. The journal is stored on your device only.
