Kneeling
Lowering the body onto the knees — the physical act of putting yourself below the standing position.
Kneeling in a dream is the dream's image of the physical act of putting yourself below the standing position. Kneeling is used for prayer, for submission, for proposing marriage, for working at something on the ground. The dream brings kneeling when something in your life — a request, an acknowledged authority, a piece of work that requires the body to be low — is being approached with a posture that deliberately gives up the upright advantage. A kneeling done freely for the right occasion is the dream affirming the chosen posture. A kneeling forced by circumstance, the body lowered against the will of the person inside it, is the dream noting that the posture has been imposed, and the meaning that should belong to freely given kneeling has been appropriated.
