Bullet

A symbol of a malicious word or the word of God aimed at a spiritual enemy, Ps. 10:7. A blank or empty cartridge is symbolic of ineffective prayer

This symbol has a direct trajectory that allows it to hit its mark or penetrate through hard surfaces. Feeling a bullet entering your body is representative of the pain that comes from being forced to 'open' up. This symbolism can also suggest that you are being overly defensive or sensitive in receiving constructive criticism. See Blood under Anatomy and Body Parts.
