Dreaming of hiding food for an ancestral rite - dream meaning with inherited lore
It may reflect feelings you haven’t shared with your family or a burden you’ve kept to yourself.
You put food for the ancestral rite in a box or wardrobe and hide it so no one else can find it. You may feel tense in case you’re caught, or relieved after hiding it.
Korean lore: Traditionally, hiding food for a memorial rite has sometimes been interpreted as being unable to reveal an important family matter or one’s true feelings. It may also be seen as a wish to avoid the family’s gaze or responsibilities. (Because food for a memorial rite is connected to family rituals in folk dream interpretation, hiding or concealing it is also often read as having meaning in one’s relationships.)
Through the mind: This scene may appear when you are holding a choice or feeling that is difficult to explain to your family all by yourself. If you felt uncomfortable after hiding it, you may be more worried about being judged if discovered than about the secret itself.
