Original
To dream of being beheaded and taken away. In a dream, killing is not actual killing, but rather an omen of someone taking one's head, thus indicating the aid of others. If the head is taken away, it signifies execution, the most severe of the five punishments. One should abandon family and country as easily as discarding worn-out shoes, and devote oneself wholeheartedly to loyalty and filial piety; Heaven will surely protect one.
