loss of body parts...

I had two dreams:
In the first one, a little boy (I think he was close to me) was having his legs cut off by two other little boys…

In the second one, I was on the street and we wanted to steal something (a car?!) and we tore off the arm of a man who was there (a bad man)

A bit too many losses… :-\

I would like to know what that means, because as you can imagine, it was not pleasant at all…

Thank you!

Hello C,
At first glance, it is a child's dream, unless there is a particular reason to worry about one's child; the child in the dream often refers to the couple and its difficulties (since the child, like the baby, is the fruit of the couple).
The child often symbolizes the conscious being within each of us that asks to grow. A Upanishad (a sacred Hindu text) tells of a child within us, as small as a thumb... Thus, any dream image of a poorly dressed, poorly fed, neglected, or forgotten baby or child reminds the dreamer that it is urgent to take care of their own inner life. Sometimes trials are so heavy that they block evolution.
The street, a choice, a road, a decision, a turning point in one's life, etc…
The car is a means of transportation, self-care, taking charge of one's life, being in control of oneself, etc.
Arms, to take hold of in one's arms (affection), to ask for love or to give it, to have a long arm or an amputated arm, etc.
In short, you are experiencing relationship or behavioral difficulties; otherwise, you need to realize that you are here and do some inner work on yourself and your life, because you are stuck in your personal growth. It’s about making a choice, a decision, a turning point in your life, and taking charge of your life. Because you feel as if your legs and arms have been amputated, making it impossible to walk or to drive (to make a decision), both in terms of administrative and emotional matters.

Thank you very much for this explanation, very effective
This must rather refer to my love life. Indeed, I have been a student abroad for a year, and there are sometimes doubts and second-guessing about my romantic relationship with my boyfriend who is in France... Moreover, right now I am attracted to someone else, but in 10 days I will see my boyfriend again, so I am holding on.

Hello Cad,
Yes, hang in there ;D
Kisses, Ladysally
