Arm

To see an arm in a dream signifies, if the arm is long, a generous person; and if it is short, a brave but conceited person. To feel pain and ache in one’s arm in a dream denotes sorrow, or that the thing one has done with one’s hand will not attain worth or value.

The breaking of the arm in a dream signifies death or suffering a calamity; excessive hair seen on the arm signifies a debt that will cause distress to the person; the naked male arm signifies an honourable man who consumes his own earnings; and the naked female arm denotes worldly possessions. Arms signify business partners, two friends, brothers, or grown children.

The interpretation of seeing an arm in a dream means that you must make your own decisions in your affairs. To see in a dream that one has no arms indicates that one is being protected by others. The arm is an indication that some disagreements will arise between a married couple. Certain people may enter your relationship and attempt to drive you apart. Beware.

The meaning of seeing an arm in a dream is interpreted as relatives, a housemate, a partner, an official, or servants who assist a person in all his affairs. If someone sees his arm beautiful, fleshy, and full in a dream, it means that he will find ease in all the works he undertakes in this world and receive help from everyone. To see one’s arm crooked, misshapen, and weak signifies that the men whom he believes to be assisting him are thinking of betraying him; to see one’s arm crippled and so feeble as to be useless indicates that his children and relatives will be unable to help him.

To see one arm long and the other short in a dream denotes that one of the two persons from whom he expects help will assist him, while the other will not. The arm in a dream is also interpreted as strength, power, skill, and wealth. To see one’s arm disabled to the point of being useless signifies that one’s friends and relatives are incapable of helping him; to see one’s arm covered with black hairs indicates that he will succeed in a work he wishes to begin; whereas to see it thin and hairless is interpreted contrariwise to this dream. A hairy arm is auspicious for a man, but not good for a woman.

According to another narration: The arms seen in a dream are the dreamer’s two friends, close brothers, children who have reached puberty, or two partners suited to his condition, from whom he will benefit and in whom he will place his trust. If a person sees a man with short arms in a dream, it indicates that the man is brave, generous, and conceited.

Ibn Sirin: To see an arm in a dream indicates strength, might, and a supporter. The arm being strong denotes power, while its being weak denotes incapacity.

It can be read as a sign of easing, receiving support, gaining morale, or a fruitful development.

Underestimating opportunities, succumbing to comfort, or being late may reduce the positive effect.

In the interpretation, the themes of success and reputation, work and responsibility, health and body, spiritual signs, the emotional tone in the dream, and how the symbol concludes in the dream should be evaluated together.
