Abstract

I studied on the dream of conception tales in modern society from the point of the narrative method of birth experience centering around the snake dream tales. First of all, the snake dream tales are structuralized of the responses, the affection and the abhorrence, of the dream subject on the snake symbol. Next, according to this structural features of the snake dream tales, the meaning of the snake symbols are divided into the unexpecting, the object of surprising or fear, of good feeling. The unexpecting signifies the fateful nature of pregnancy and birth, the object of surprising or fear signifies the fear and the pain of it, the good feeling signifies the curious aspects of it. Finally, the snake motif that it breaks in on her skirt and the snake motif that it hides in strawberry bine are the most appropriate modes of expression to the nature of pregnancy and birth. The former represents the fateful nature, the pain, the sexual shame of pregnancy and birth, and the latter represents the curious aspects and the mental trouble of birth experience. And the embellishing the embryo symbol belong to the narrative method of birth in that it due to her burden in the experience pregnancy and birth, entangled with preference for boys.
