How silver changes the reading
The base reading of Sword
A sword in a dream is the dictionary's image of discrimination — the act of cutting between this and that, of making a clean call where there used to be ambiguity. The dream often appears around decisions where you have actually already decided and the dream is putting the moment of cutting into visible form.
Where you often see it. A sword on a wall. A sword drawn in a defensive scene. The dream uses the sword for a decision-making weapon — discrimination, the cut between this and that.
What it is not. A sword is not always combat. The dictionary reads it as the dreamer's clarity-tool.
Related in the dictionary. Read sword with knife (its smaller cousin), shield, and any scene where the dreamer is being asked to discriminate.
