A dream of lighting a candle with a match - dream meaning with inherited lore
Traditionally, lighting a candle with a small spark has sometimes been interpreted as beginning to hope or gathering your thoughts.
You strike a match, light it, and bring it close to the candle wick. You watch the flame catch or feel relieved when it lights right away.
Korean lore: Lighting a candle has traditionally been interpreted as making a wish or setting a new intention. A dream of lighting one with a match can also be seen as starting something through a small spark. (This interpretation follows folk dream readings that see lighting a candle as a prayer and a new beginning.)
Through the mind: You may be longing to start with one small thing you can do now, rather than make a big change. Whether the match caught and whether you felt relieved may reflect your confidence or hesitation lately.
