Dreaming of the deceased returning an object - dream meaning with inherited lore

A scene where the deceased silently hands you something may show you accepting again a memory, responsibility, or part of the relationship that remains in your heart.

Without a word, the deceased holds out a familiar object such as a watch, clothes, or a letter. You take it, or hesitate before holding it, but cannot ask what it means.

Korean lore: Traditionally, dreams in which the deceased hands you something have sometimes been interpreted as memories received from them or a scene where family ties continue. The meaning may be viewed differently depending on the object, but it would be difficult to say that it determines a specific event. (In folk dream interpretation, an object belonging to the deceased is often treated as a symbol of bonds and memories left behind, and of roles passed down within the family.)

Through the mind: You may have been sorting through keepsakes or old belongings, or feeling again in your present life the attitudes and responsibilities you learned from that person. If yours was a relationship where feelings were conveyed through objects rather than words, the dream may have shown them in the same way.
