Purple Scar in dreams

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

Purple colour places the symbol between hot and cool — a reading that has both calm and intensity at once. The dream often uses purple for symbols that do not fit the usual categories cleanly. Take the reading more seriously than you would otherwise; the colour is asking you to.

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.
