A dream of asking the deceased who they are - dream meaning with inherited lore
It has sometimes been interpreted as a scene where you look together at the wish to confirm who is calling and the unfamiliar feelings that arise.
You hear the deceased person's voice somewhere, and in the dream you ask who it is. They may not answer right away, showing only their expression or appearance.
Korean lore: Traditionally, stopping to confirm the identity of the deceased rather than immediately following their call has sometimes been seen as a scene of carefully considering the direction of your life. The effort to identify the deceased has also been interpreted as lingering attachment or wariness. (This interpretation comes from a folk tradition of reading conversations and distance with the deceased as memories of family ties and the boundary between life and death.)
Through the mind: These scenes may reflect how recently you’ve found it hard to trust someone’s intentions or what lies ahead. Longing for someone who has passed and uncertainty about the present may also have become intertwined.
