A knife in a dream often symbolizes a need to cut something out of your life. This can be a situation, another person, or a way of thinking or behaving.
Consider whether something in your life may be affecting you in a negative way, and whether you would be better off without it.
Stabbing someone with a knife in a dream can mean that you are frustrated and angry in real life. It can mean that you believe that others are not listening to you or that they do not understand you, and you need to “get your point across”.
In a dream, a knife can be a symbol of masculine power.
A dream that you are being stabbed can mean that you feel victimized or that you are being taken advantage of in real life.
Using a knife to cut food can be a message that you need to look at the small details of an issue.
