Dreaming of your father saying nothing - dream meaning with inherited lore

Your father is right in front of you, but he doesn’t answer or avoids your gaze. Even when you speak to him first in the dream, the quiet atmosphere continues.

Korean lore: Traditionally, this has sometimes been interpreted as a sign of blocked communication within the family or an unresolved concern lingering in your heart. Still, silence may also be seen as a sign of peace. (Folk dream interpretations have traditionally read a family member's words and expressions as clues to the flow of a relationship.)

Through the mind: There may be something you want to ask your father, but you fear his reaction, or you may feel as though communication between you has already broken off. On the other hand, you may have imagined your father's silence at a time when you had to make a decision alone.
