A familial source of metaphorical nourishment.

If you have needed support lately, and haven’t turned to your own family (especially your mother), consider this option.

Being broken: Having the connection between yourself and your family (specifically vour mother) cut off in some manner. [1]

This is the first place where your needs get met as a human being. In fact, with an umbilical cord, there is no distance between a need and its immediate fulfillment. In this lies the symbolic meaning of the notion that all needs get met. There can be a hidden meaning in a dream that features this symbol of wishing to return to a time when you did not have to work for what you desire. [2]
To dream of an umbilical cord signifies your own need for uniqueness. You might be articulating some sort of concern about being by yourself and being able to support yourself.

If you dream that you are cutting the umbilical cord, it represents that you need to be more independent and stand out on your own. You need to pull yourself up and get back to normalcy. [3]

Gives gender-specific: In a woman’s dream, an umbilical cord is more likely to be about her subtle connection to someone else, particularly if she has been pregnant, whereas for a man it is more likely to be about their connection to him. Some men will dream of the umbilical cord when trying to escape from an over­possessive mother. [4]
Dreams of an umbilical chord represent your connection to your mother. This dream is revealing that your most vulnerable, infantile self needs to feel connected to a nurturing, higher, and loving source. Or your dream is showing you that you have become dependant on a source outside of yourself. [5]
Psychological / emotional perspective: The umbilical cord particularly represents the life-giving force and the connection between mother and child. Severing the umbilical cord often appears in teenage dreams as the child grows into adulthood. [6]
Material aspects: Often in life we can develop an emotional dependency on others, and the umbilical cord in dreams can signify that dependency. We have perhaps not yet learnt to take care of our own needs in a mature way. [7]
The silver cord is an image seen psychically as the connection between body and soul, and is also perceived in dreams. As we begin to grow spiritually this is often seen as being connected at, or near, the solar plexus or belly button. [8]
Symbolic of silver cord that connects body and spirit. Nurturing; one is never severed or cut off from the life force, divine love and caring. Cosmic connection. Also, may mean dependency on person or belief system. [9]
An umbilical cord in a dream can represent a source of nourishment, but it often carries less pleasant connotations of dependency, or a crippling emotional tie to one’s mother. [10]
Symbolic of being attached to someone or something.

1. The emotional bond between parent and child.

2. If cutting the cord, one is attempting to be free. [12]
