A dream of seeing your own shadow in the mist - dream meaning with inherited lore
It may appear when you are looking at yourself or your choices as if they were unfamiliar.
In a misty alley, you notice a long shadow stretching out ahead. As you draw closer, its shape changes or seems to follow your movements a moment late, leaving you uneasy.
Korean lore: Traditionally, a shadow in the fog has sometimes been interpreted as a reflection of a lingering worry or something not yet revealed. Facing the shadow may also be seen as a process of looking closely at your fears. (This interpretation applies the folk-dream-reading image of a shadow as hidden feelings or unresolved matters, together with the way fog conceals things.)
Through the mind: You may be judging who you are now by your old standards, or asking yourself again what kind of person you are. Trying to meet others' expectations may also have created distance between your true feelings and the way you appear.
