Dreaming of experiencing an earthquake underground - dream meaning with inherited lore

You’re underground as the walls and floor shake and the lights flicker. The stairs leading outside seem far away or blocked by people.

Korean lore: Traditionally, an earthquake has sometimes been interpreted as major changes in life or a shaking of the foundations. There is no established interpretation for adding an underground setting, so you might also look at the unease you felt in the dream. (Some folk interpretations read earthquakes as signs of change, but meanings tied to particular places vary from person to person.)

Through the mind: You may be facing a situation that’s hard to get out of, or a worry that’s hard to talk about. Feeling as though your options are limited may have come through as the stuffiness of being underground.
