In a broad sense, the ax was associated among many peoples with a symbol of power and strength. Among the Celts, Africans, and the peoples of the north, the ax was an indispensable item for every warrior. And in the Middle Kingdom, this weapon is associated with the union of families in local wedding rituals. The ax is identified with the strength, power and energy of lightning.
Remember how the god Zeus was healed of severe migraines in myths? They chopped off his head with an axe. Esotericists are confident that this powerful weapon is a sacred object and can not only drive away evil spirits from a person, but also cure ailments.
The ancient Slavs were supposed to place an ax in the crib of a newly born boy so that evil spirits could not jinx him. Weapons were often identified with masculinity, so if a woman wanted a boy, the wife would place an ax on the pillow.
An ax is a complex symbol because its handle is made of wood (this is one meaning), and its blade is made of iron, which carries a completely different symbolism.
Dreaming of an ax
Do not panic, thinking that you are in some kind of danger if you saw a formidable ax in a dream. According to most interpretations, the dream indicates that your hard work will soon be appreciated, perhaps in monetary terms.
A dream in which an ax appeared suggests that you are a person who has a highly developed sixth sense. It often helps you get out of difficult situations.
Of course, you should not ignore a dream in which someone threatened you with this weapon. It is possible that someone has evil plans against you. But if the weapon in the dream was in your hands, then weigh the pros and cons before using forceful methods or your influence to the detriment of others. The punishment won't take long.
Various details of a dream can turn the entire interpretation upside down, so it makes sense to turn to respected sources for whom nuances are important.
Miller's Dream Book
A famous psychologist is sure that an ax in a night dream is a symbol of reward.
If you have worked hard and are proud of the work you have done, don't worry, you will be appreciated and praised. If you have seen weapons in the hands of strangers, soon you will be surrounded by very good people who love to joke and have fun, and therefore an eternal holiday will burst into your life.
An unmarried lady saw a dream with an ax in the lead role; in reality she will meet her future husband, but he cannot be called wealthy.
If the ax turns out to be rusty or broken, in reality you may be overcome by illnesses and lack of money.
Vanga's Dream Book
A well-known fortuneteller interprets a dream involving an ax in a positive way. The dream means that you are an integral person with a strong character who can handle all troubles. In the near future you will have to prove this once again.
The soothsayer is confident that you will be able to achieve your goals, but probably friends and relatives will not come to your aid. At some moments, this is exactly what you will miss.
In a dream I happened to sharpen an ax; the dreamer set his sights on achieving some heights. The fortuneteller notes that if you are confident in the success of the event you have started, then start acting without hesitation.
If in a dream you threw a weapon to the ground, fate has put you in a difficult situation; you don’t know where to go next. In general, you are at a crossroads.
In the dream, the ax was in the hands of another person; a friend will come to your aid. Together you will solve problems.
