What does it mean to have a dream where worms come out of your elbow?

Answer 1

The worms symbolize something that is rotten or dead that the dreamer needs to eliminate from one's life. This might be anything from a bad relationship to a bad habit to a pantry in urgent need of cleaning. The elbow does not represent anything in particular, but might have entered the dream because of some discomfort during sleep.

Answer 2

The worms represent some sort of pollution or filth that your unconscious mind associates with your "hand," that is, with your behavior. For example, a number of religious traditions view masturbation as filthy and deeply sinful. So the guilt associated with masturbation might well be expressed in a dream as "worms" in your hand. Your challenge is to determine what you have done (or has been done to you) that might be expressed as this sort of revolting pollution.
