Dream of Receiving a Black Mourning Ribbon - dream meaning with inherited lore
Receiving a black mourning ribbon may be connected to sharing someone's grief or formally bringing a period of life to a close.
You receive a black ribbon or mourning badge at a funeral and pin it to your clothes. You may not know whom it is for, or those around you may quietly watch you.
Korean lore: Traditionally, dreams of receiving mourning clothes or a black ribbon have sometimes been interpreted as scenes of processing grief and taking on a new level of responsibility. They may also be connected to changes in your role at work or within your family. (In folk dream interpretations, funeral symbols and mourning clothes have been read not only as grief, but also as changes in roles and the reorganization of relationships.)
Through the mind: You may have this dream when your share of responsibility at work or in your family has grown, or when you are aware of the expectations around you. It may also reflect holding your emotions down through manners and responsibility rather than showing your sadness outwardly.
