What Does It Mean When You Dream About Dream About a Garden?
A garden represents what you've cultivated — the careful, intentional work of planting, tending, and growing something beautiful in your life. It's the part of you that you've actively nurtured, and its condition shows how well that work is going.
Common Interpretations
