In a specific clinical case, a dream featuring a team of white horses drawing a cart to a hanging represented the collapse of a psychological defense system. This motif was interpreted as signaling the end of a role as a 'sacrificial lamb' and the emergence of repressed aggressive affects following childhood trauma.
In a documented case of childhood sexual trauma, a dream of white horses drawing a cart to a hanging signified the collapse of a fragile psychological system. The analyst interpreted this specific dream motif as marking the end of the dreamer's role as a 'sacrificial lamb' protecting a parent.
