Dreaming of crying with your family - dream meaning with inherited lore
It may show worries you have not been able to share with your family, or a wish to understand how you truly feel about one another.
You sit facing your family and cry together in a familiar place, such as home or during a holiday gathering. You may not know who started crying, or simply hold hands in silence.
Korean lore: Traditionally, tears shed with family have sometimes been interpreted as a scene in which emotions within the household are released or affection for one another becomes visible. They may also be seen as worries between family members coming to the surface. (In folk dream interpretation, a crying scene involving family has often been read as a process of looking at family relationships and emotional bonds.)
Through the mind: It may reflect burdens that are harder to talk about because you are close, such as family expectations, questions of independence and living expenses, or words left unsaid during a holiday gathering. Rather than necessarily meaning something bad, it may be a wish to share your feelings with your family.
