1- An operation in hospital is frightening and invasive. In dreams it can signify our awareness of our own fears of illness and pain, but also a recognition of our need to be healed.

2- If we are performing an operation we are recognising our own level of skill within a situation in waking life.

If the operation is being performed on us we are attempting to access some inner knowledge but are possibly fearful of the outcome.

3- Incisive Healing.

Interpretation 3 — Martha Clarke

If you dream that you are about to undergo a surgery, and suddenly, you get up from the operating table, convinced that you are cured, it means you have self confidence. You believe in the resolution of a problem that at first seemed incurable. So, you will find the correct answer without outside intervention. In addition to this, the image of the scalpel urges you to act with precision, decisiveness, and conviction to put an end to a situation that is worrying you.

Interpretation 4 — Versatile - Anonymous

Psychological / emotional perspective: If we are performing an operation we are recognizing our own level of skill within a situation in waking life.

If the operation is being performed on us we are attempting to access some inner knowledge but are possibly fearful of the outcome. Modern surgical methods are less invasive than early surgery and when these appear in dreams will suggest more subtle ways of managing distress.

Interpretation 7 — Dr. Mıchael Lennox

A surgical procedure is a healing proposition designed to correct some malfunction, remove something that is not working properly, or replace something that has ceased to work at all. As a symbol, an operation is evidence that such a healing and transformation is going on in your life that is invasive and frightening and carries with it both a measure of risk as well as a level of profound necessity.

Interpretation 10 — Internet Archive - Anonymous

It is an obstacle dream if you imagine that you are undergoing an Operation. Success will come to you if no trouble comes in the dream. It is, however, considered a sign of unexpected news if you watch an Operation performed on someone else. Neither of these meanings would apply in the case of a nurse or a medical man.

Interpretation 11 — James R. Lewis and Evelyn Dorothy Oliver

A medical procedure being performed on the dreamer may signify old issues being “cut out” or patched up.

If the dreamer is doing the operating, then deep unconscious issues are being faced, worked on, and healed.

The overall implication of this dream depends on one’s experiences with medical operations.

Interpretation 12 — Versatile - Anonymous

An operation is a carefully planned procedure, whether that is a military or surgical one. Spiritually, therefore, it represents incisive healing, or the restoration of equilibrium.

An operation in dreams can, therefore, highlight the need for healing of the spirit, the eradication of ‘dis-ease’.

Interpretation 13 — Stearn Robinson - Tom Corbett

An important change in your funda- mental life-style is fore- cast in a dream of under- going surgery; to dream of observing an operation predicts unexpected news. However, neither of these dreams has any signifi- cance if you practice (or are connected with) any form of medicine.
