A dream of following the deceased and coming back - dream meaning with inherited lore
Following the deceased and then returning may connect with moving toward your grief while turning back toward the life you live now.
You follow the deceased along a road or to an unfamiliar place, then turn back at some point. You may return alone or the deceased may quietly let you go, leaving you with a sense of relief when you wake.
Korean lore: Traditionally, following a deceased person and then returning has sometimes been read as experiencing the boundary of parting and coming back to everyday life. The return is sometimes seen as a sign of feeling more settled or protected. (This draws on folk interpretations that read following and returning as one scene of parting.)
Through the mind: You may be in a time when your longing for the deceased and your wish to carry on with daily life are moving together. If returning felt peaceful, it may show a wish to keep the memories while turning toward life today.
