What does it mean to dream you are being hanged?

Answer 1

This dream suggests that some important aspect of the dreamer's life is being threatened or destroyed. "being hanged" suggests that the harm is coming from a power outside the dreamer's self, over which the dreamer has no control. "Hanged" suggest strangling, choking which are related to the ability to breath or speak. So the threat could be in response to something the dreamer said. In general, death in a dream represents the end of one stage of life and the beginning of something new.

Dreams don't mean anything. This is just a scary nightmare.

Dreams are a function of the subconscious.

Symbols have different meanings to different social groups. It therefore depends on the group to which you belong what those symbols mean.

For someone that has no knowledge of the group to which a person belongs and to claim to be able to interpret those symbols is nonsense.

Dreams mostly mean nothing and are a function of the subconscious mind. We know little of the conscious mind. Those people that claim to be able to interpret the subconscious are charlatans, playing upon the insecurities of people in need real support. Either for financial gain or kudos.
