Being tied to a chair means you are held in a station that you did not choose and cannot leave. This dream shows a time when the roles we play among our kin and our neighbors become a weight that we cannot set down. When a person stays where they are bound, they find that their ability to move toward others or to walk away from a quarrel is taken from them. We see that those who are fixed in one place by forces they do not command often find their influence limited to the small circle immediately around them.
The way you are held in this dream speaks to how you occupy your place in the household. If you are unable to rise, your capacity to serve or to protect those you love is restricted by the very position you hold. This stillness can lead to a feeling of being forgotten by those who are moving through the world. There is a danger of becoming a person who only watches life pass by rather than one who takes part in the weaving of it.
The ties that bind you are the same ones that define your belonging. You may find that your presence is required in a way that leaves you without the freedom to seek your own path. It is a heavy thing to be present only because you are unable to be elsewhere, child, and this can make the heart grow weary of its own duty. Still, the strength of those who remain is a pillar for the ones who must wander. May your roots be deep even when your feet are still.

Efua NyansaInterpreter interprets your dreams
Sit down first, child. The dream is not going anywhere. The elders used to say that a person is never read alone. Whoever stood beside you in the dream matters as much as what you saw, and the path behind you matters as much as the one ahead. Look, a dream with your people in it has already done half its work. May the name you were given keep you well.
