Dreaming of Being Possessed by the Devil - dream meaning with inherited lore

You have trouble controlling your body or voice, and it feels as though the devil has entered your body. Even when you try to call for help, no sound may come out, or your movements may slow down.

Korean lore: Traditionally, dreams of being possessed by the devil have sometimes been interpreted as a state of becoming emotionally weakened or swayed by those around you. They may also be seen as long-suppressed fear taking on a powerful form. (This connects with a folk dream-interpretation tradition that reads possession and ghosts as symbols of having your mind or will taken from you.)

Through the mind: You may dream of this helpless scene when work, relationships, or family expectations make it feel as though you have less say in your own choices. If you also experienced sleep that felt as though your body was being pressed down, that may have made the dream’s atmosphere more vivid.
