Dreaming of wearing a coat at the office - dream meaning with inherited lore

You’re sitting at your desk at the office, but you don’t take off your coat. The people around you work as usual while you stay seated, touching your collar or sleeves.

Korean lore: A coat has often been interpreted as a reflection of how you present yourself socially or how you protect yourself. There isn't a clear traditional interpretation for keeping one on in an office, so focus on the guardedness you felt there. (This draws on folk interpretations of coats as part of one's public image and preparation for what lies outside.)

Through the mind: You may be going through a time when it's hard to relax or show how you really feel at work. You could reflect on whether you've felt you need to stay tense around recent tasks or people.
