A line is a symbol of movement but also of division or a dividing force, such as a boundary, as expressed in the phrase, ’drawing a line in the sand’.
If someone is drawing a line in your dream, it indicates their decisiveness or their extent of their boundaries. As your geometry teacher probably told you many times, a straight line is the shortest distance between two points. It is the straight path, the road to take to reach your goal.
If you are dreaming about a straight line, it means you want to find an efficient way to reach your goals rather than meandering and wasting years and years before attaining your dream.
If the line is tangled or knotted, this suggests indecision and confusion in your life, whilst if the line zigzags, this suggests change and movement.
Whereas a straight line represents the straight and most immediate path to a goal, a wavy line is one that meanders around, taking in the sights and taking its time. The person taking the straight path only cares about the goal and getting there, but the person taking the wavy line, the curvy path in life, is exploring all the options. They are enjoying each day for what it brings, enjoying the side trips, relishing the changing of the seasons and the turning of the days. Yes, they might not reach their goal as quickly but for the person taking the wavy line, the journey and living every day to the full is the goal.

[5]Waiting in a line has several interpretations. On one hand, it is a sign of impatience. On the other, it indicates the discomfort of being in a group of anonymous people without standing out in it. In that case, the dream reflects your desire to differentiate yourself from the rest. This can be interpreted as either an inferiority complex, or as a desire to excel.
