Dream of receiving salt at a shamanic ritual - dream meaning with inherited lore

At the ritual, you receive a handful of salt or a bag of salt from a shaman or an elder. You hold it tightly and pause to consider whether to sprinkle it around the door or nearby.

Korean lore: Traditionally, receiving salt has sometimes been interpreted as blocking harmful energy and cleansing the body and home. It may also represent gaining a protective layer to steady your heart. (In folk belief, salt is considered something that blocks negative energy and cleanses a space, so shamanic interpretations also carry forward its meanings of purification and defense.)

Through the mind: You may want to draw a boundary so that someone’s words or mood do not easily sway you these days. The dream may also reflect a wish to find small rules you can keep at home or at work.
