Dreaming of cremating a body - dream meaning with inherited lore

You watch a body disappear in front of a crematorium or fire. The smoke, heat, and feeling that you must let go may remain vivid.

Korean lore: Traditionally, scenes of burning a body have sometimes been interpreted as putting old matters or lingering energy in order. They may also be seen as showing a sense of loss or the burden of change, depending on the fire’s intensity and your feelings in the dream. (In folk dream interpretations, scenes of death and funerals are often read as symbols of endings and transitions rather than literal death.)

Through the mind: You may be thinking about a relationship or matter that needs settling, even though your heart has not caught up yet. The wish to move on quickly and your lingering regret may have appeared together in the dream.
