case study of dreaming of the underworld

Dream description: there was a widower whose wife died young and his children were far away. One night, he dreamt that he was standing in a towering doorway and could not get in. When I was in a hurry, I suddenly saw several familiar faces, which turned out to be classmates who had not been in touch for a long time. The students said hello to the man happily, and the man went in with them. The overall structure there is like a large underground mall, one room after another, the difference is that e is always extending downward, at a glance, there seems to be no bottom. And it was dark and windy inside, which made the man tremble. At first, there were a lot of people, just like shopping, but people just passed by, and there was no communication with each other, and it was terrible. As she was leaving, a woman came across from her, with long hair, big eyes, very beautiful, and smiled at this man. Just as she was scrubbing with the man, she suddenly grabbed him by the arm and dragged him to run, and then the man woke up. When the man woke up, the more he thought about it, the more wrong it became. The woman looked familiar-- wasn't that what his wife looked like when she was young? When the man thought of going to the underworld in his dream, he broke out in a cold sweat. He felt very uncomfortable and his arm hurt. The next day, the man went to see a doctor. Upon examination, he found that it was liver cirrhosis, and if the disease continued to develop, it would be fatal liver cancer.

Dream interpretation: this is a typical early warning dream. The underworld symbolizes death, and disease can lead to death. If this person is ignorant all the time, he will die of liver cancer. But the subconscious sensed this and issued a warning to the person in the dream. This person goes down to the underworld-if he gets sick, he will really go to the underworld. The wife is the embodiment of the subconscious, and holding this person's hand means that there is something wrong with the dreamer's liver. Because it is said in the book "the formation of the five Zang organs": "the tendon of the liver is also the glory of its claws." The liver dominates the tendon. The activity of tendons depends on the nourishment of liver and blood. Deficiency of liver blood and loss of nourishment of tendons can lead to a series of symptoms. if the heat evil is hot and the Yin blood burns the liver, there may be convulsions of limbs, closure of teeth, reverse expansion of angular arch, etc., which is called "internal movement of liver wind" in TCM. "claw" includes nails and toenails, there is a saying that "claws are tendons". If the liver blood is sufficient, the nails are ruddy and tough; if the liver blood is insufficient, the claws are haggard, soft, or sunken and deformed. So, in the dream, the man's wife-the embodiment of the subconscious-pointed out the location of his illness.
