A Dream About the Birthday Candles Going Out in the Wind - dream meaning with inherited lore
It may be connected to feeling that your plans or wishes are being shaken by outside circumstances you can’t easily control.
As you light the candles at an outdoor birthday table, a sudden wind blows out the flames. You try to relight them, but the wind keeps blowing, or the people around you shield the candles.
Korean lore: Traditionally, a birthday candle's flame has been seen as the energy of vitality and wishes, while a flame blown out by the wind has sometimes been interpreted as plans being affected by outside factors. If the flame comes back, it may be viewed as a process of adjusting the course. (In folk dream interpretations, fire symbolizes vitality and wishes, while wind symbolizes changes in the surrounding environment, so the movement of both elements may be considered together.)
Through the mind: Even though you prepared thoroughly, you may feel that outside circumstances involving family, work, or money are beyond your control. If someone shielded the flame, it may also have revealed a wish to receive help.
