Scissors in a dream are the dictionary's image of a clean separation made willingly. The dream often appears when you have been preparing to cut something out of your life — a habit, a relationship, an obligation — and the dream is rehearsing the moment of doing it.
Where you often see it. Scissors held in the hand. Scissors used to cut a thread. The dream uses scissors for cutting — a clean separation, willingly made.
What it is not. Scissors are not always aggression. The dictionary reads them as the chosen-separation tool.
