Dreaming of an elevator filling with water - dream meaning with inherited lore

With the elevator doors closed, water quickly rises inside. You press the floor buttons or pound on the doors, but never reach where you want to go.

Korean lore: Traditionally, a scene of water filling a space that moves up and down has sometimes been interpreted as a sudden disruption in status or the flow of daily life. If the door opened and you escaped, it may also reflect finding a way out of a blocked situation. (In folk dream interpretations, spaces used for movement have been read as a flow of rising and falling, while floods have been understood as sudden changes that are difficult to control.)

Through the mind: Such a narrow, urgent scene may appear when you feel pressured by having to watch both those above and below you at work or in relationships. It may also reflect the feeling that things are piling up before you have time to choose.
