Scientific Interpretation

Scissors in a dream

Signify mechanical intervention or the presence of negative semantics that separate the "I" from In-Se. This image can symbolize an action that led to a severing of the connection with life or the loss of some organic part. This image is even more negative than the image of the knife (see Knife).

Нож

Выражает физическую либо другую, но всегда разрушительную агрессию. Представляет собой безнадежную ситуацию либо действие психического пениса в его смертоносной или разрушающей фазе. В других случаях обозначает настоящую подоплеку любой фаллической активности, связанной с эдиповым комплексом, который в большей степени, чем вся деятельность человека, являет собою результат внедрения чуждой программы, опирающейся на фигуру матери.
