Dreaming of Cutting Your Tongue with a Knife - dream meaning with inherited lore

A blade touches your mouth or tongue, making it hard to speak. You may see blood, or close your mouth just as you try to say something.

Korean lore: Traditionally, dreaming of cutting your tongue has sometimes been interpreted as a warning to be careful of slips of the tongue or gossip. It can also be seen as a reminder to look back on tensions in relationships formed through words. (In folk dream interpretations, the tongue and mouth are connected to speech and communication, so being cut has long been read alongside conflicts caused by words.)

Through the mind: You may have something important to say to your company or family, but find yourself watching the mood and worrying about how others will react. You may also still be troubled by something you said recently, or be holding back words you want to say.
