Dreaming of cutting a rope with a saw - dream meaning with inherited lore
Traditionally, this has sometimes been read as a sign of sorting out tangled matters yourself or ending a relationship that has gone on for a long time.
You press the saw blade in your hand against the rope and move it back and forth. You watch as the fibers gradually snap, until the last strand breaks with a pop.
Korean lore: In traditional folk dream readings, cutting a rope can represent sorting out tangled ties or a blocked situation. There is little established interpretation for the specific detail of cutting it with a saw, so you can read the scene lightly, focusing on the act of severing it. (In folk dream readings, a rope can symbolize relationships that connect or bind people, while cutting it can point to a change in that connection.)
Through the mind: You may be trying to make up your mind about something or a relationship that needs sorting out in real life. Cutting it yourself may hold both the wish to make a decision and the worries that follow.
