Dreaming of cutting a flowerpot with scissors - dream meaning with inherited lore
You may want to change the shape of something you’ve carefully tended, or make room for new growth.
You try to cut the flowerpot itself with scissors, not the plant’s leaves or stems. You might worry the soil will spill, or feel you have no choice if you’re going to move the plant.
Korean lore: There doesn’t seem to be a widely established traditional interpretation of cutting a potted plant. Some interpretations see plants and pots as images of care and growth, so a scene that disrupts that foundation can be gently explored as reflecting feelings about change. (This draws on folk interpretations that see plants as images of growth and care.)
Through the mind: You may be trying to change the way you handle something you’ve cared for over a long time, or a relationship. You may feel that change is needed while also worrying about damaging what you’ve built so far.
