Straining

Ibn Sīrīn: In a dream, being strained to the utmost of one’s strength or forcing oneself indicates the death of a sick person, or working very hard to provide for those whose maintenance is one’s responsibility.

It provides early awareness; the person sees risks before they grow and can choose a more solid path.

Neglect, haste, untrustworthy people or uncontrolled behavior can increase the difficulty.

In the interpretation, the themes of general meaning, inner intuition, the emotional tone in the dream, and how the symbol concluded in the dream should be evaluated together.
