Nettles

I bet your first question is “why did I dream of nettles?” Stinging nettles seen in dreams indicates that somebody will be criticising you in the near future or a difficult time in love.
The name nettle comes from the Dutch term “nettle” which means needles. Nettles are fantastic sources of minerals, fibre, and vitamins and from a psychological dream perspective, the nettle is connected to how we heal ourselves. Basically, the dream can indicate that you need to watch your diet or nutrition. In order to look deeper into this dream meaning, we need to understand what stinging nettles denote from a spiritual perspective. Nettle leaves can be used to treat various alignments such as rheumatoid arthritis, infidelity and also in some cases diabetes.  It was the Romans who first used stinging nettles in regards to improving health. They can reach around eight foot in height and have heart-shaped, toothed leaves. In some older gypsy dream meanings, the nettle is a sign of being “stung” in love due to the heart shape of the leaves. The leaves and stem is covered in small stinging hairs, that include a cocktail of histamine, acetylcholine, and formic acid. The spines penetrate our skin break off and leave venom, which causes that stinging feeling. Spiritually stinging indicates a shock to the system or a problem in life.
