Nerves or the nervous system can represent: Interaction.
Communication or inner communication.
Connections.
A network.
[1]One’s nerves in a dream represent his comportment, bearing and presence. Irritation of one’s nerves in a dream means distress and sorrow.
If a nerve is cut off in a dream, it represents a broken life, and for a sick person it represents his death. In a dream, a nerve also represents a master, or a sire, piety, a signing witness, agreements, provisions, property, or family ties. Whatever affects one’s nerves in a dream will reflect upon any of the above.
