Black Scar in dreams

A wound that has closed — and the line it left to remember it by.

How black changes the reading

Black colour pulls the symbol toward the not-yet-known — depth, hiddenness, the part of the situation that has not yet come into the light. The dream is rarely warning you; it is showing you that there is more to the picture than the part you have been looking at.

The base reading of Scar

A scar in a dream is the dictionary's image of a wound that has closed but left a line. The dream tends to appear when you have come to a point where a past hurt has begun to read as history rather than injury. The dream is not asking you to do anything about it; it is just noting that the closing has happened.

Where you often see it. A scar you do not remember earning. A scar that has just become visible. The dream uses the scar for a wound that has closed — and the line it left to remember it by.

What it is not. A scar in a dream is not a literal injury you missed. It is the dictionary's image of a past hurt now integrated.

Related in the dictionary. Read scar with skin, ruin (its larger cousin), and any image of repair.
