Case Analysis of Dreaming of Cruelty

Dream description: The fingernails that were discovered and dug out were very clean, like pieces of shining gemstones. (Female, 22 years old)

Dream analysis: Fingernails are a part of the body and can metaphorically represent the existence of the body. From a modern perspective, digging out someone else’s fingernails is to gain a sense of superiority over others and to control their psychology.

The desire to obtain someone else’s fingernails in the dream can also be interpreted as an attempt to acquire some secrets of the other party, to gain leverage in interactions with them, making them powerless to compete with you.
