Weapons have long been considered a symbol of cruelty and aggression. If a woman dreams of a knife, this is a bad omen. Most people talk about a negative context, but this is not always what happens. Each dream book has its own interpretation.
What does the meaning of sleep depend on?
The meaning depends primarily on who saw it - a woman or a man, a child or an elderly person. Gender and age are important factors for understanding sleep, but they are far from the only ones.
A person’s occupation also matters. For example, if a woman sees a dream in which she is attacked, or she herself acts as an aggressor, then the interpretation directly depends on the type of her occupation. All old dream books, such as Miller’s collection of interpretations, Islamic and others, by the term “woman” mean the keeper of the hearth, running the house and household with funds earned by a man.
Accordingly, if a dreamer, who is actively building a career, looks for a decoding in one of the old dream books, she finds the meaning that is not the one that the subconscious put into the vision. Working women, and even more so those who work in leadership positions and have subordinates, need to look at the male sections of dream books, it is there that they will find the correct meaning of the dreamed symbols.
In the event that work is present in a woman’s life, but it is not burdensome and is more of a pastime than a significant source of income for the family, both meanings should be looked at. The truth will be in the middle. Exactly the same approach is relevant for men. If a person is not a breadwinner, but lives on money earned by a woman, the meaning of the dream should not be sought in the men’s sections of old dream books.
What else is important to understand?
In addition to age, occupation and gender, to correctly understand the meaning of a dream, you need to take into account personal circumstances, life situation, psychological state, microclimate in the family and many other nuances that only the person himself can know about.
In addition to what characterizes the dreamer in real life, details and little details of the plot are important for understanding the meaning. It is in the little things that the key to the correct interpretation lies, regardless of which dream book is used for this. The attack is only part of the whole dream picture. You need to try to remember the characteristics of the knife - large, small kitchen, fantasy, hunting, special or some other. The knife itself is a symbol found in the oldest dream books, so it needs to be given attention.
You should remember the whole plot as a whole, of course, taking into account the details. For example, if a victim is running away from an attacker, does she do so barefoot or with shoes on? If in shoes, what kind? Absolutely everything that the sleeper sees is important. Elements of no significance in the dream are erased and absent. That is, if it does not matter where exactly the victim is running away from the attacker with a knife, then the dreamer will not remember this. But if there is a place - a castle, a sewer, city streets, a labyrinth, a forest or something else, then you need to remember it. Sometimes the plot unfolds in a specific place that exists in real life, such dreams are warning in nature.
Why do you dream of a man attacking a woman? For women
For a correct understanding, the following nuances are important: was the attacker in the dream a familiar person or an abstract one? Was it a famous person or a stranger whose facial features were clearly visible and remembered? The dream interpretation of an attack by a man with a knife on a woman is ambiguous.
If in a dream a completely abstract person or a maniac attacks, then this dream foreshadows the appearance in the near future of an persistent admirer without any special merits. When a woman is being pursued by a man she knows in her life, this dream means that the person needs attention. This is not necessarily about coquetry or female attention; it is possible that an acquaintance needs participation or help.
If her husband or close friend rushes at a lady with a knife in his hands, this is a sign of imminent troubles associated with jealousy experienced by a man. Such a dream may foreshadow a case of domestic violence or beating of a woman out of jealousy. Or maybe it’s simply a warning that a man is jealous and this is the source of his distrust of a woman.
If in a dream a famous person rushes at a woman, then such a vision foreshadows attacks from the public. The exact meaning of the vision can only be understood by taking into account what kind of person appears in it and how the woman relates to this person.
The stranger whom we managed to see was a prophetic dream. It has no meaning other than what happened in the plot. Of course, it is not necessary that the woman dreamed of a future real attack on her by a maniac. But the person she saw in such a dream is a source of danger, illness, injury or other troubles.
Freud's Dream Book
A famous psychologist gives his assessment of the dream. If you dream that a man you know will attack with a knife, the dreamer takes on too much responsibility and walks on the “brink of what is permitted . Such frivolous behavior will certainly be followed by appropriate consequences.
After such a dream, it would be nice for a man to change his surroundings and go on vacation. As a rule, edged weapons reflect sexual problems and misunderstandings on the part of the partner. It is quite possible that she realizes her role is to be only a means of relaxation.
If a woman is attacked by a stranger with a weapon, this means changes in her personal life. Dr. Freud advises not to get involved with unfamiliar men, as this will not end well. Otherwise, the lady will only face disappointment and emotional pain.
A man attacking a woman? For men
Men dream of being attacked for various reasons. For example, if in a dream a man plays an active role and stabs his wife or girlfriend with a knife, this indicates his mental discomfort, resentment, insolvency, and weakness. The man blames the woman for all this and takes out his anger in his sleep. That is, such a dream is a game of the subconscious.
If a man observes an attack from the outside, this predicts real-life events. This means that the dreamer will witness an offense or crime. The dream interpretation of a man's attack on a woman, observed from the outside, is also interpreted as a harbinger of injustice, which the sleeping person will witness.
If in a dream a man took a knife and, while pursuing the victim, cut himself, then this foreshadows an unsuccessful manifestation of initiative. If the woman is abstract, the dream talks about work, and in cases where the spouse is dreaming, about family.
What does it mean if a woman attacks according to different dream books
Dream books give a completely different direction of interpretation. Some believe that the woman’s attack is connected with real future events, while others believe that this is only a reflection of an emotional plan. Namely:
- Medea’s dream book is sure: a woman is connected with the sphere of emotions and feelings, and her aggression suggests that there will be complete discord in her soul.
- Miller's dream book promises intrigue, warns of someone else's cunning and outside interference in plans.
- G. Ivanov’s newest dream book promises a streak of bad luck, a disruption of plans.
- The 21st century dream book considers an attack by a woman to be a harbinger of gossip, mental disharmony, anxiety and unrest.
- The Italian dream book reminds that if an old woman attacked, you should prepare for a general decline. This is also a hint that the past does not want to go away.
- A gypsy dream book predicts success when attacked by a young girl, especially in business. However, you will have to realize your mistakes.
- A modern combined dream book promises depression, illness or scandal after such a dream event.
Woman attacking man? For women
Such a dream usually speaks of a woman’s active life position and her “masculine” behavior in life. But understanding depends on the details and development of the plot. If a woman attacks someone who is pursuing her, then this is a positive, good dream. It portends a quick resolution of problems in life that are relevant for a specific period of time.
If a woman herself shows aggression and pursues a man, then the meaning of the dream depends on whether the victim is familiar to her. Stalking a spouse means not trusting the person in reality. If the victim runs away, then the mistrust is not empty. If a woman manages to injure a man, and he does not even resist, then this means that all doubts are in vain and only offend a close friend.
Woman attacking man? For men
The meaning here lies deep in the dreamer's subconscious. As a rule, such dreams are the consequences of severe mental trauma received from a woman in childhood or adolescence. If nothing like this happened, and in dreams a man becomes a victim of a woman he knows, then the vision reports the woman’s unclean, selfish plans. If the knife is stabbed by the mother or the spouse with whom you have lived your whole life, provided that this is a dream of an elderly person, then you need to remember the places of the blows. This may be a warning about diseases that will appear in places affected in a dream.
One woman attacking another? For women
The dream book interprets an attack with a knife in different ways, but if a woman dreams that she attacked another, this is a sign indicating the presence of a rival in life. In this dream, details are everything. The woman you know is a victim or not, long-haired or shaved, fat or thin. Every little detail is important, and its meaning is clear only to the dreamer herself, since no one knows the real life situation and hidden thoughts better than her. If the victim ran away in a dream, then this is an unkind sign. It was not possible to defeat a rival in a dream, and it will not be possible in life.
A dream with a reverse distribution of roles has a similar meaning. The only difference is that the real real rival will be the first to take some action, which is what the vision warns about.

I didn’t see any blood, I didn’t feel any pain. I immediately woke up from fear.
