Dreaming of fastening a button backward - dream meaning with inherited lore
It may connect to checking whether you’ve taken the wrong direction in a role or relationship you’re responsible for.
Only after fastening all the buttons do you notice that the front and back, or top and bottom, are reversed. You find yourself wondering whether to take the clothes off and fix them or simply go out as they are.
Korean lore: Traditionally, scenes of fastening clothes incorrectly or wearing them inside out have sometimes been interpreted as signs of trouble with appearances or relationships. Rather than declaring them a major bad omen, some people see them as a signal to look again at your current choices. (This draws on a folk tradition of reading the direction of clothing and a neat appearance as symbols of social roles and outward respectability.)
Through the mind: You may have felt that the way your company or family expects you to be doesn't match how you really feel. The dream's embarrassing scene may reflect worrying more about being found out than about the mistake itself.
