A Dream of a Cross Etched on Your Skin - dream meaning with inherited lore
It may be a moment of wanting to show your faith or identity, or of wondering what it means to you.
You notice a cross etched into the skin of your arm or the back of your hand. You may be surprised because you don’t know who put it there, or keep looking at the mark.
Korean lore: There isn’t a clearly established Korean folk tradition with a widely accepted interpretation for a cross marked on the body. A mark on the body can bring to mind a belief that matters to you personally or a way of expressing yourself. (This approach considers both the cross’s religious symbolism and the personal meaning of a mark on the body.)
Through the mind: You may be thinking about how to show your beliefs or sense of belonging to those around you. Whether you welcomed the mark or wanted it gone may offer a sense of how much you want to reveal and how much feels burdensome.
