A Dream of an Ancestor Moving a Coffin - dream meaning with inherited lore

Your ancestor carries or moves a coffin, while you watch. You may not see where it’s headed, or the surroundings may feel still and quiet.

Korean lore: Traditionally, dreams featuring a coffin have sometimes been interpreted in connection with change or bringing something old to a close. There are various interpretations of an ancestor carrying a coffin, but there's no basis for seeing it as a prediction of death or an accident. (Folk interpretations have a tradition of reading coffins and funeral scenes as symbols of closure or change.)

Through the mind: Worries about your family's health or things in the past may have carried into the images of a funeral and coffin. If you're facing a major decision, the dream may also reflect a sense of bringing one chapter to a close.
