Garden

Interpretation

Gardens symbolize cultivation, growth, and the results of tending to aspects of life. The garden’s condition reflects how well you’re nurturing your potential, relationships, or projects. It represents natural development guided by care.

Common Meanings

• Blooming Garden: Success, thriving projects, healthy growth, abundance
• Overgrown Garden: Neglect, overwhelm, loss of control, wild growth
• Planting: Beginning projects, setting intentions, investing in future
• Weeding: Removing negativity, clearing obstacles, maintaining boundaries
• Dead Garden: Neglect, depression, lost vitality, need for renewal

Cultural Context

Gardens represent humanity’s partnership with nature—cultivation versus wilderness, conscious development versus natural growth. The Garden of Eden symbolizes paradise, original innocence, and connection with the divine.

Personal Reflection

Consider:

• What in your life needs tending?
• Are you nurturing your goals and relationships?
• What’s blooming, and what’s been neglected?
• How does the garden’s condition feel?

Garden dreams often arise when considering what you’ve cultivated in life, during growth periods, or when aspects of life need more attention and care to thrive.
