Dreaming of crying after being praised - dream meaning with inherited lore
It may be a scene where the wish to be recognized and all the time you have worked so hard come rushing in at once.
You start crying when someone says you have worked hard or praises you in front of others. You try to say thank you, but your throat tightens and you cannot answer right away.
Korean lore: Traditionally, dreaming of crying after being praised has sometimes been interpreted as blocked energy being released and a wish for one's efforts to be rewarded. It may also be seen as a dream about hoping for good feedback or a restored relationship. (Folk dream interpretations sometimes connect tears of joy and praise with achievement, recognition, and improving relationships.)
Through the mind: You may have felt that you were not fully recognized at work or in a close relationship. Though you acted as if everything was fine, your wish for someone to notice the time and effort you put in may appear as tears.
