When you are goading someone, you are trying to get them to do something that they would not naturally choose to do.
Therefore, a dream about goading someone or about being goaded often has to do with behaving in a way that is not natural and that could be harmful in the long run.
A dream that you are goading someone could be a warning that you are trying too hard to gain control over a situation, and that this could backfire.
If you dream that someone is goading you, it could mean that you are concerned about being controlled by negative impulses. For example, you could be afraid of fear or anger getting the best of you and causing you to behave in a way that is not beneficial to you or to the people around you.
A dream that you are goading someone or that someone is goading you can be a message that you are making things needlessly difficult yourself. Your dream is telling you that you need to take it easy and let things happen naturally.
