Dreaming of Abusing Others
Dreaming of abusing a cat warns you to be cautious as you may be at risk of theft. If the cat being abused in the dream is your own pet, it suggests that if you do get robbed, your belongings can still be recovered.
Dreaming of abusing someone indicates that you may encounter misfortune and financial loss due to your business relationships with others.
Dreaming of being abused yourself signifies that you will experience mistreatment from enemies in your daily life.
A young woman dreaming of hearing abusive language suggests that she will be troubled by jealousy and envy from certain individuals. If she herself uses such abusive language, it indicates that she will unexpectedly face difficulties and feel ashamed and remorseful for past misconduct towards friends.
Psychological Dream Interpretation:
The root of sadistic tendencies often stems from anger, which is a result of childhood emotional trauma that persists to this day. The individual desires to harm others, usually those they love, or provoke a reaction from them. While most people do not engage in violent behavior when awake, repressed desires can be unleashed in dreams.
Psychological Analysis: It is important to consider whether the dreamer displays sadistic behavior or if another person inflicts harm upon them in the dream. In dreams, other characters often represent different aspects of the dreamer's personality. Therefore, the dreamer should reflect on whether they consciously or unconsciously subject themselves to pain. Perhaps the dreamer wishes to punish themselves for imagined transgressions, and the dream of abusive behavior serves as a form of self-punishment. The presence of a sadistic figure in the dream may also imply masochistic tendencies when awake.
Symbolism: On a symbolic level, the sadistic figure represents misguided life force.
