What does it mean to dream about cutting off a snake's head?
In order to interpret a dream correctly and in detail, it is necessary to recall in memory the exact chain of events in it. All the nuances are important here: the color and size of the reptile, the behavior of the snake and the degree of its aggression, the location of the event. Also, sleep is explained differently for men and women of different ages.
The general interpretation of a dream about cutting off the head of a snake speaks of upcoming unpleasant events in a person’s relationship with his close circle. A series of serious conflicts will leave the dreamer without moral strength, but the truth will be on his side. It is not for nothing that the snake is considered a symbol of wisdom. The negative side of the dream is tied to the fact of killing an animal. At the same time, this is a victory over one’s fears and vices, strengthening the morale of the main character of the dream.

If you dreamed that the snake’s head was not in one number, but in several, be sure to clarify why you are dreaming.

But a two-headed snake is a sign of the dreamer’s indecision, suggests the White Magician’s dream book. Did you dream of two snake heads peeking out of a cracked egg? Don't discount small problems - they can be the beginning of big troubles.
What to look for when interpreting a dream
Let's take a closer look at what dreams mean if a person had to cut off the head of a snake. For a competent interpretation of a dream, even small details such as color, size and number of reptiles are important.
The color of the reptile plays a significant role, since in the world of dreams color signals are no less important than images of people and animals:
The size of the animal correlates with the volume of problems that a person has to solve in reality. The larger the asp, the more global the difficulties. However, tearing off the head of a large boa constrictor means achieving great success in material affairs. Small animals mean envious people and gossips who act on the sly and can cause minor annoyance.
Note! Any color of a reptile, except black, interprets vision positively and means that you will not find yourself alone even in the most difficult situation. Your loved ones will help you personally or provide financial support.
The age of an individual cannot always be determined from a dream, but it is possible to distinguish a small snake from an adult individual. A young snake, like its small relatives, is a symbol of gossip and envy. If you dreamed that you managed to tear off the skin along with the head from the entire length of the monster’s body, then such a vision foreshadows getting rid of everything unnecessary and putting things in order in all areas of your activity.
The number of reptiles symbolically projects the number of obvious ill-wishers. A tangle of hissing creatures that one had to fight with means that the hero of the dream is at the center of intrigues and intrigues; gossip about him is exaggerated.
