Dreaming of sitting at a desk - dream meaning with inherited lore

In the dream, you sit at a familiar desk and get ready to start working or studying. You may feel comfortable in the chair, or your body may tense up for no clear reason and feel burdened.

Korean lore: Traditionally, sitting at a desk has sometimes been interpreted as putting your mind toward an assigned task or study. It may also be seen as part of finding your place. (This interpretation comes from a modern folk-dream tradition that reads a workplace or study desk as a symbol of responsibility and preparation.)

Through the mind: It may reflect a recent wish to face the things you need to do instead of putting them off. On the other hand, the frustration you felt at the desk may reflect the pressure of starting work or study.
