For its more general meaning: Dream about a stomach
I have a similiar dream, except instead of a bullet, I get an arrow in my stomach. It’s like I’m playing a role in a cowboys and indians movie except I feel the arrow go into me as if it’s really happening and I begin to experience the sensations of dying.
