Dreaming of pressing the wrong button in an elevator - dream meaning with inherited lore

You press a button for a floor you did not intend to visit, and the elevator moves in the wrong direction. You realize too late that you pressed the wrong one and panic, then hesitate over whether to press another button or get off as you are.

Korean lore: Traditionally, dreams of choosing the wrong path or direction have sometimes been linked to confused judgment or revising a plan. If you noticed before arriving, the scene may be viewed as leaving room to correct a mistake. (A folk dream-reading tradition has interpreted choosing a path and changing direction in relation to choices and the progress of one's affairs.)

Through the mind: You may still be wondering, “Was that the right choice?” about something you decided recently. Rather than blaming yourself for a choice that has passed, it may help to separate what you can change now from what can stay as it is.
