Personal symbolism
Ham appears in several different roles here, and the action changes the reading. Simply seeing it brings a warning about being used treacherously, while cutting large slices suggests meeting opposition successfully. Preparing ham is linked with lenient treatment from others; selling or dealing in it points toward prosperity and good health. Eating it carries the opposite note, suggesting the loss of something valuable, whereas smelling it cooking connects you with benefits from other people’s enterprises. Notice whether the dream centered on handling, trading, eating, or only noticing the food, and what that action meant to you.
