Splinters are the small, sharp irritations that the mind has failed to process or discard. A dream involving these objects shows the brain identifying minor frictions that have begun to occupy a disproportionate amount of mental space.
The process of sorting these fragments allows the dreamer to recognize how small, unresolved irritations accumulate into a significant weight. This recognition allows the dreamer to see the specific points of friction that are causing a constant, nagging discomfort. The presence of such fragments is an invitation to attend to the small things that disturb the peace.
A dream of pulling out a splinter indicates the active attempt to rid the self of a nagging grievance. The mind successfully extracts the source of the friction, which brings back a quietness that was previously disturbed.
Owen SterlingInterpreter interprets your dreams
Many people believe a frightening dream announces something, when more often the brain was simply sorting the days just before it. During the night the mind files what was carried over from recent hours, and what gets filed loudest is what was felt most. A rough night leaves a residue by morning that fades with daylight. Nothing was sent. The sleeper was working, and the work is done.
