Dreaming of Getting Water on Your Face - dream meaning with inherited lore

Someone splashes water on your face, or a sudden stream of water hits it. You may close your eyes in surprise, then look around to see what happened.

Korean lore: Traditionally, having water splash onto the face has sometimes been read as sudden news or a shift in direction. If the water was clear and refreshing, it may be seen as a sign that stagnant feelings are being washed away. (In folk dream interpretations, water is sometimes read as a symbol of emotions and flow, while the face represents the self shown to the outside world.)

Through the mind: Unexpected words or contact may be shaking up your feelings right now. At the same time, you may be wishing for someone to wake you from a powerless state.
