Knot

Because you 'tie the knot,' as a symbol of commitment, the knot can portray things that are not easily undone. You can be 'tied up in knots' and dream of the knot as an objective symbol of being overly caught up in a situation. The knot can be untied and suggests you may need to 'detach.' See Not under Homonyms.

To make a knot in one’s shirt in a dream means engaging in business. Tying a knot with a rope in a dream represents one’s religious commitment. Tying a knot with a handkerchief in a dream means giving fringe benefits to a servant or to an employee. Tying a belt over a pair of pants in a dream means marriage. Tying a knot with a thread in a dream means asserting one’s intention, or stipulating one’s plan, or it could mean sorcery and an evil spell. Ifone sees himself tying a rope or a thread around a pouch or a bag and could not open it again, and if an unknown person comes- by and unties the knot in the dream, it means distress, stress, uptightness, or suffering from political persecution, or financial adversities that will be lifted unexpectedly by God’s leave.
