| Having a dream about literally stopping to smell the roses, or any other type of flower, is often interpreted as a negative sign associated with loss or unfortunate circumstances. This is usually the case if the flowers give off an unpleasant or pungent odor. If the flowers smelled sweet and fresh, however, it could indicate the opposite, meaning you are more likely to find yourself in a favorable or advantageous position in life. Having the sense or feeling that you enjoy the scent of the flowers can be a manifestation of excitement and anticipation that occurs before a date with someone new in your life. |  |
