Flower
Flowers represent beauty, the unfolding of potential, love, and the fleeting nature of life. Different flowers carry different meanings: roses for love, lilies for purity, sunflowers for joy. A blooming flower suggests personal flowering and the realization of potential. Wilting flowers represent decay, missed opportunities, or the passage of time. Receiving flowers may indicate love, appreciation, or mourning.
Key
Keys represent access, solutions to problems, and the power to open locked aspects of life or self. Finding a key suggests discovering a solution or gaining access to something previously closed off. A golden key represents important or spiritual access. Losing keys reflects anxiety about losing access to important areas of your life — security, identity, home. A key that doesn't fit suggests trying the wrong approach.
