Canker dream meaning
Seeing canker on an object is presented as a harmful omen: for the young, death and treacherous companions; for the aged, sorrow and loneliness. Cankerous growths in the flesh are separately associated with future distinction in public or stage life.
Dream scenarios
- 1
Canker seen on anything
An omen of evil; for the young, it foretells death and treacherous companions, and for the aged, sorrow and loneliness.
- 2
Cankerous growths in the flesh
Future distinction, either as a head of state or in stage life, is indicated.
Personal symbolism
The image has two sharply different directions. Canker seen on something is associated with harm, with the meaning varying by age: death and treacherous companions for the young, sorrow and loneliness for the aged. Cankerous growths in the flesh are given a strikingly different association, pointing toward distinction in public office or stage life. Consider which image appeared and whether the dream emphasized an object, a bodily growth, or the feeling of being singled out.
Questions to reflect on
- Was the canker on an object or a growth in the flesh?
- Did the dream focus on danger, loneliness, or recognition?
