This time we’ll look at dreams about nails, in this case the kind of nails that are used in woodworking, not those on your fingers and toes. How should you interpret a dream about woodworking nails?

This dream usually means that you’re searching for a way to bind things together. If the nails seem to hold well, this means that your subconscious thinks the idea is sound. If you nail things together and then they fall apart, this indicates that you subconsciously think the idea will be a failure.

Another way I’ve seen it interpreted is that a nail indicates male penetrative powers. The effectiveness of the nail can indicate either prowess or problems in this area. For some, it could indicate fear of penetration.

On a spiritual level, it most often is interpreted in Christian thought as relating to Christ’s ultimate sacrifice and pain. In other religions, it has been interpreted as meaning something that is necessary or something being brought by fate.
