Dreaming of dropping a knife - dream meaning with inherited lore

While doing something, the knife slips from your hand and falls to the floor. You are not hurt, but the sound may startle you, or you may quickly pick it up in case someone sees.

Korean lore: Traditionally, dropping a tool from your hand has sometimes been interpreted as plans or control being shaken. If you picked it up again without getting hurt, it may also suggest a process of recovering from a mistake. (In folk dream interpretation, a tool held in the hand is connected with the power to get things done, while dropping it may represent a temporary setback or anxiety.)

Through the mind: The tension of feeling that you must not make a mistake at work or in an important relationship may have been growing. Even if nothing serious happened, you may be dwelling on a brief lapse for a long time.
