Dreaming of crying in fear and running away - dream meaning with inherited lore

You run away crying from something in a dark place. The dream may end as you look for somewhere to hide or open a door and escape into the light.

Korean lore: Traditionally, dreaming of crying in fear and running away has sometimes been interpreted as a wish to shake off something frightening and avoid a crisis. If you eventually escaped, it may also be seen as a dream about finding a clue to getting out of a blocked situation. (Folk dream interpretations sometimes read fear and escape as expressions of worry and symbols of a turning point.)

Through the mind: There may be situations that keep you tense, such as work, relationships, or money problems. Running away in the dream may show that you no longer want to endure that pressure alone, or that you need rest.
