A dream about attending a funeral - dream meaning with inherited lore
Traditionally, this has sometimes been interpreted as the process of closing out one period and moving into a new phase.
You go to a funeral and pay your respects among people in mourning clothes. You may bow quietly or shed tears while watching someone's funeral.
Korean lore: Traditionally, funerals have sometimes been interpreted as symbols of closure and putting things in order. They may also be seen as the process of letting go of a long-standing worry or one phase of a relationship. (In Korean folk dream interpretation, funerals and paying respects to the dead have often been read as images of closure, transition, and a new beginning rather than death itself.)
Through the mind: If you recently closed out a chapter of your life through leaving a job, ending a relationship, or moving, those feelings may have appeared in the form of a funeral. It may also be a dream that safely mourns feelings you still find hard to call finished.
