Murder is a violent, law-based, illegal act. Taking another one's life also means gaining a punishment for one's soul and separation from God. However, killing someone through the act of self-defense is inevitable; what does this mean in a dream?
Why Am I Committing The Act Of Self Defense In My Dream?
Dreaming of the act of self-defense may be a sign that you have a fear for unexpected changes. You have been feeling worried to the bone because of how you are moving to another residence or career.

Self-defense also indicates your hesitance whenever you are about to take dominance within a situation. You may have a rough time deciding about a particular thing; thus, you are becoming impatient.

Sometimes you are unrealistic and base yourself and your decisions on fairytales such as fantasies.

Similar to a murder dream, this dream also indicates that you need to end something in your life even if you never wanted it to end.
