A Dream of the Deceased in Black - dream meaning with inherited lore
The deceased wearing black may be connected to feelings of mourning or the sense that a heavy memory still remains.
The deceased stands quietly in black clothes or mourning attire. The surroundings may be dark or carry a funeral-like atmosphere, but the deceased says nothing.
Korean lore: Traditionally, the deceased in black has sometimes been interpreted as a trace of mourning and a past bond. If the deceased looked at ease in the dream, it may be seen as a scene of gradually sorting through memories in your heart. (In folk dream interpretations, the color and condition of clothing are sometimes read as elements that show the dream's emotional tone and the atmosphere of your memories of the deceased.)
Through the mind: If you recently encountered a death anniversary or a family story, or passed a place that reminded you of the deceased, feelings of mourning may have risen again. It may also reflect having continued with daily life without fully expressing your grief.
