What do different body parts represent in a dream?
When we dream about our basic body parts, it can often represent how we feel about ourselves physically, emotionally, and mentally. For example, if you dream about your head, it can represent your thoughts and your ability to think clearly. If you dream about your heart, it can represent your emotions and your ability to feel.
Head
One element that often appears in a dream is the human body. Dreams involving your own body can be disconcerting, but try not to worry too much about them. Body dreams often have to do with physical and emotional Well-being. They can also be about taking control or lack thereof.
If you dream that you are decapitated, it generally signifies that you are feeling out of control or powerless in some area of your life. It could be a sign that you are facing some kind of crisis. If you dream that someone else is decapitated, it may represent some aspect of yourself that you find repulsive or difficult to accept. Alternatively, this person may represent someone in your life who is causing you problems.
Dreams about detached heads can also be symbolic of thoughts and ideas that are floating around disconnected from emotion or feeling.

Alternatively, this type of dream may indicate some kind of cognitive dissonance or conflict between the way you think and the way you feel.
