To dream about a scalpel signifies a separation that is precise, accurate and detailed.
Dreams on Female First
This could be a mutual parting of ways in a relationship, a job or within an educational setting. You may have already gone your separate ways or perhaps you are about to and are concerned about the future beyond this split.
On the flipside, do you need to handle something with more care? Perhaps something or someone needs more of your attention if you have been distracted lately. Consider the seriousness of it if you continue to be diverted.
Perhaps you or someone you know is approaching a problem because you or they have the expert knowledge with how to deal with it. You may be feeling the pressure of this responsibility if it’s down to you or you might be worried about how well you can support this other person.
It’s possible you know exactly how to remove a problem and are about to act on this knowledge, which might not be an easy thing to do if the problem is significant.
If someone was attacking you with a scalpel- perhaps someone is trying to attack your beliefs, reputation or your actions in your waking hours. There is someone who knows exactly what to do to offend or hurt you. What can you do to defend yourself? Why are they intent on attacking you?
Another thought is that you have an obsessive need for perfection and you are distracted and frustrated by never being able to reach it. It might be time to go a little easier on yourself to make things more achievable and manageable.
A scalpel might also mean that you need to cut something or someone out of your life. Perhaps a person, habit or action isn’t serving you well and you need to rid yourself of it before you can feel better.
