Dreaming of not crying at a funeral - dream meaning with inherited lore
Not being able to cry at a sad gathering may be connected to holding back your emotions or not having fully taken in what happened yet.
Everyone around you is crying, but no tears come. You feel as though you should be sad, yet your face is stiff, or you feel as if you are watching the scene from far away.
Korean lore: Traditionally, not crying at a funeral has sometimes been interpreted as grief not yet reaching the heart. It may also be seen as a time when emotions are being held back for a while. (In folk dream interpretations, crying and silence at a funeral have sometimes been read as scenes expressing one’s way of grieving and the weight carried in the heart.)
Through the mind: You may be putting your feelings aside while taking care of what needs to be done in reality. If you’ve spent a long time holding on and pretending you’re fine, your heart may appear closed off even in a dream.
