Dreaming of being praised at a former workplace - dream meaning with inherited lore
It may be a scene of checking whether you can still trust the abilities you were once recognized for.
In front of people from your former workplace, you hear that you handled a task well, or receive a thank-you for your hard work from your old supervisor. You feel good, or laugh awkwardly without saying much.
Korean lore: Traditionally, scenes of receiving praise or recognition have sometimes been interpreted as a process of improving one’s reputation and gaining confidence. They may also be seen as past experiences becoming a source of strength in the present. (This interpretation applies the common folk reading of praise and favorable evaluations as a recovery of honor or energy to a scene set at a former workplace.)
Through the mind: When you feel you are not being fully recognized despite doing well at your current job, moments when you were praised before may appear in dreams. It may be worth noticing whether you miss that praise or want to regain your confidence now.
