A dream of seeing the spirit of someone who died - dream meaning with inherited lore
Longing for someone you’ve lost, or feelings you haven’t sorted through, may appear in a dream.
Someone who died appears in a room or on a road. The mood shifts depending on whether they come close or stand far away, and on their expression.
Korean lore: Traditionally, dreams of a dead person’s spirit have sometimes been interpreted in connection with your bond with them or the mood in your family. The interpretation may also vary depending on whether they seemed at ease or frightening in the dream. (In folk dream readings, a dead person’s spirit has often been read as a sign of lingering bonds and feelings.)
Through the mind: Longing or grief may be coming up again, or you may be remembering times when you leaned on that person. If the dream felt frightening, the mood may also reflect something that feels burdensome lately.
