Dreaming of Crying While Eating - dream meaning with inherited lore
This scene may show loneliness or hurt feelings still lingering beneath everyday life.
You are eating a meal or some food when tears begin to fall. It may also appear as crying silently while eating alone or sitting at the same table with others.
Korean lore: Traditionally, scenes of eating have sometimes been connected with stability in daily life and the flow of household affairs. Crying at the table has often been interpreted as showing that feelings remain inside even while you go through your everyday routine. (In folk dream interpretations, food and the dining table are read as symbols of living circumstances or family relationships, while tears are seen as an outlet for suppressed feelings.)
Through the mind: You may have this dream when your heart cannot keep up, even as you go through ordinary routines like work and meals. You might reflect on whether you feel you are carrying your true feelings alone, even when you are with family or someone close.
