What did Freud interpret from Little Hans's dreams in the study?

Freud interpreted Little Hans's dreams as reflecting the Oedipus Complex and his fear of his father. In this case, Little Hans exhibited typical childhood fears, particularly a fear of horses, which Freud believed symbolized his father. The dreams expressed conflicts related to his desires for his mother and the fear of castration by his father, illustrating the dynamics of male children experiencing rivalry with their fathers for their mothers' affection. This interpretation aligns with Freud's broader theories that focus on unconscious motivations and complex familial relationships in childhood, emphasizing that dreams can reveal underlying psychological issues.
