To dream about poking suggests that you are ‘poking fun’ at someone in your waking hours.

Consider how this is making the other person feel, what started out as humorous on both sides, might now be having a negative effect on the recipient. It may be time to stop or even apologise.
If someone was poking fun at you, consider who was in the dream with you, this might offer some greater clarity as to who is working against you in your life. You may not have realised that this person has been singalling you out until the dream alerted you to this unhealthy relationship.
Consider the phrase- ‘poking your nose in other people’s business’. It’s possible you are trying to muscle in on someone else’s private matters. The dream could be telling you back off before someone else does, or before it has a detrimental effect on the person whose space you are invading.
Is someone doing this to you and your family? Perhaps the dream is encouraging you to be honest with this person and let them know that they have crossed a line.
Poke is the Hawaiin word for ‘slice’ or ‘chop’, so maybe you need to cut something out of your life that is causing you fear, sadness or frustration.
Think about the things or people that/who bring you down and reassess whether you should dedicate any more time to it/them.
If someone was poking you in the dream, try to remember what for. Perhaps this very person is trying to push you in your waking hours and if you follow their advice, you could better yourself and your circumstances.
With that said, if they were poking you for something trivial, perhaps this person has a habit of antagonising you for no reason. Do you need to tell them that their persistence is unwanted?
