Dreaming of a candle setting a curtain on fire - dream meaning with inherited lore
It may reflect tension about a small worry or conflict growing larger than expected.
The candle falls or the flame grows, setting the curtain or nearby objects on fire. You run around trying to put it out, feeling almost unable to breathe through the smoke in the room.
Korean lore: Traditionally, fire spreading beyond control has sometimes been interpreted as emotions or situations growing too large. Rather than taking it as a definite prediction of an actual accident, it is more natural to see it as a symbol inviting you to check what is around you.
