Dreaming of a Knife Sinking in Water - dream meaning with inherited lore

The knife in your hand falls into the water and sinks. You may remember whether the water was clear or murky, or whether you tried to retrieve it.

Korean lore: Losing a knife or sending it into water has sometimes been interpreted traditionally as a loss of resolve or control. The symbols of water and a knife can be read differently depending on the mood of the dream and what’s troubling you in real life. (In folk dream interpretations, a knife is sometimes linked to resolve and strength, and water to feelings or the course of events.)

Through the mind: You might consider whether there’s something you’ve been putting off saying, or a decision you’d like to set aside for a while. The dream may also reflect a recent feeling of being swept up in your emotions.
