Life force, lineage, and what you are giving of yourself.
How wet changes the reading
The base reading of Blood
Blood in a dream is rarely the violent image it appears to be. It is energy, vitality, lineage. Bleeding from a wound that does not hurt is the dictionary's way of saying you have been giving more than you realize.
Blood you can see but do not feel pain from is often a sign of an old wound still slowly draining your energy. Cleaning blood off your hands is the work of taking responsibility for something — usually something less dramatic than the dream made it look.
Where you often see it. Blood from a wound that does not hurt. Blood on hands after a quiet scene. A small cut that bleeds more than it should. The dream uses blood for life force, lineage, and what you are giving of yourself.
What it is not. Blood in a dream is rarely the violent image it appears to be. It is energy. Reading blood as injury-by-default misses the dictionary's gentler register.
Related in the dictionary. Read blood with heart, the colour red, and any scene where what is being given is internal.
