Dream About bait

Pamela Ball Interpretation: In a woman’s dream putting down bait can be an indication of her doubts about her own ability to attract a partner. She may feel that she has to entrap or ensnare a partner.

There is an aspect of our lives which needs bringing out into the open. We have to fool that part of ourselves which is failing to co-operate in making progress. There is some kind of enticement which has to take place.

Spiritually, we must ‘tempt’ evil in some way in order to trap it, and ultimately control it.

Dream Explanations - Anonymous Interpretation

Dreams of bait reflect your issues of power, whether trying to get energy from someone, or struggling to keep your energy in tact. This dream may be showing you that you are falling hook, line, and sinker for someone’s strategy, perhaps an advertising campaign has lured you in to buying something you don’t need, or a person has seduced you into a situation that is not good for you.

If you dream of dropping the bait, then you are trying to hook someone into doing your will.
