Dreaming of a clock showing a different time - dream meaning with inherited lore
This may reflect feeling out of step with the people around you or wanting to reset your standards.
The time you know it is differs from the time shown on the clock. You check your phone and the wall clock in turn to see which one is right.
Korean lore: Traditionally, clocks showing different times have sometimes been interpreted as a sign that your standards and the flow of things are out of step. It may also be seen as looking again for your own timing instead of matching everyone else’s. (In folk dream interpretation, a clock being out of sync is often read as a symbol of mismatched plans, promises, or timing.)
Through the mind: If you have felt that you were rushing alone at work or in a relationship, or falling behind others, that feeling may have appeared in the dream. It may be a process of sorting out what to use as your measure.
