A Will-o’-the-Wisp Over the Sea - dream meaning with inherited lore
It may show a possibility that draws you in alongside a situation that’s hard to size up.
A single light floats over the dark sea. It sways with the waves but doesn’t disappear, holding your gaze.
Korean lore: Traditionally, goblin fire has been linked to tales of people being lured near the water, so lights over the sea have sometimes been read as signs of unfamiliar paths or disorientation. Rather than labeling it a lucky or unlucky dream, you might also consider the mood of the scene. (This reading draws on folk tales that portray goblin fire as a mysterious light by the water or along a dark road.)
Through the mind: You may be facing a big choice or a new plan with both hope and anxiety. Whether the waves were calm or rough may also connect to how you’re experiencing things now.
