Dream of turning back at the gate - dream meaning with inherited lore

Korean lore: There isn’t a clear tradition for interpreting the specific scene of turning away from the front gate. A broader reading sees dreams of going in or out through a gate as standing at the threshold of change, but it may help to consider why you turned back and how you felt at the time. (In folk dream interpretations, going in and out through the front gate has been treated as an image of change, either setting out into the world or returning home.)
Through the mind: This kind of hesitation may appear in a dream when you’re facing a choice that could change things, such as changing jobs, moving, or a relationship. You may be in a time of looking at what’s giving you pause instead of rushing.
