Being blamed
Blamed, Falsely accused, Scapegoat
Being blamed for something, especially something you didn't do, stirs a hot mix of frustration and helplessness. Such dreams often appear when responsibility in your life feels blurry: tasks shared by several people, family roles nobody discussed or a group that needs someone to point at when things go wrong. If you were blamed unfairly, you might be carrying tension that belongs to others. If the blame was deserved, the dream may ask you to own a mistake so it can stop weighing on you. Notice who did the blaming. Their opinion may count for more in your mind than it should.
