Common collocations
Usage
Implies that the person or thing summoned travels a distance to come to the speaker's location. It is commonly used when bringing family members to live with you (e.g., from a rural hometown to the city, or from another country). The directional nuance of 寄せる (to draw near) distinguishes this from simply 呼ぶ (to call) — 呼び寄せる emphasizes the person actually coming to you.
