Dreaming of a flickering gas flame - dream meaning with inherited lore
A flame that keeps flickering can reflect a feeling that your mind or daily life has not settled anywhere.
The gas is on, but the flame keeps flickering as if it might go out. There is no wind, yet the flame is unsteady, and you cannot take your eyes off it.
Korean lore: Traditionally, a flickering flame has sometimes been interpreted as a sign that household matters or the flow of one’s feelings have not yet settled. The feeling may also be read differently depending on whether the flame ultimately stayed lit or went out. (In folk dream interpretation, the steadiness and movement of a flame are sometimes connected with the energy in the home or the state of work in progress.)
Through the mind: You may have this dream when you feel uncertain in a recent relationship or at work and keep watching how things unfold. It may show both a fear that something will fall apart and a wish to keep holding on.
