Dreaming of all the lights going out in a church - dream meaning with inherited lore

All the lights in the church go out, leaving the space dark. For a moment, you can't move, or you feel around to find the exit and locate the people nearby.

Korean lore: There doesn’t seem to be a widely known traditional interpretation specific to a church going dark. Seeing a place of comfort grow dark may be read as unease or a brief sense of being lost. (This draws on common dream interpretations that see religious spaces as places of peace and darkness as uncertainty.)

Through the mind: You may be feeling stuck because you lack information before a decision or can’t see what comes next. Whether someone was with you in the dream, and whether the lights came back on, may also help you understand how you felt.
