Surgery

'Surgery' in a dream represents the active process of removing and eliminating unproductive mental attitudes. Surgery is a serious, deliberate procedure -- it is not casual maintenance. It is the intentional cutting away of something that is threatening your well-being if left in place. When surgery shows up in your dream, significant inner transformation is taking place or needs to take place. An unproductive mental attitude has been identified and is being removed. This may be uncomfortable -- surgery always is. But the discomfort is temporary, and the result is improved health and function. When this symbol appears, cooperate with the process. The unproductive attitude being removed was creating dis-ease within your mind. Its removal, while uncomfortable, is necessary for your healing and continued growth. Trust the surgeon within you and allow the procedure to complete.
