Dreaming of Flowers
Beauty with a shelf life, which is the whole point.
The traditional read
Flowers meant favor, celebration, and the transience of both.
What it usually means now
Flowers are appreciation and impermanence at once. Receiving them is being valued; dead flowers is a gesture that arrived too late. Picking them is worth noticing — the dream may be about taking rather than tending.
But symbols don't dream alone
A dictionary entry can't see the room, the person standing in it, or how it ended. Describe the whole dream and get a reading that uses flowers as context, not as the answer.
