Entity psychology — head

Embodied self — head as body part maps directly to agency, health, or identity anxiety. Visibility — Wound or change on head is seen by others or hidden under clothes. Function fear — What head does waking (speak, walk, see) informs the dream read. Aging or loss — Decay, removal, or damage to head often tracks mortality anxiety fairly. Boundary — Skin, edge, or joint imagery on head marks where self meets world. Care access — Can you treat, cover, or ignore head in the dream—agency check.

Attribute psychology — lost

Absent not ended — Missing, not confirmed gone. Search panic — Active looking. Misplacement — Your fault vs theft. Reunion hope — May return. Void where it was — Identity hole.
