Pincers
Pincers — gripping, pinching, pulling — often touch exasperating cares and unfortunate incidents. The dream may ask where something has you in a tight, painful grip, and whether the nagging burden clamped onto you is squeezing harder than you can comfortably bear without finding a way to work loose.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for pincers, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To dream of feeling pincers on your flesh, denotes that you will be burdened with exasperating cares. Any dream of pincers, signifies unfortunate incidents.
