Dreaming of meeting a friend in hell - dream meaning with inherited lore
It may be a scene where worries you could not share with someone close, or the weight of a relationship, overlap in your dream.
You encounter a friend or familiar person in a hellish place. You may feel more guilt, worry, and awkwardness than happiness at seeing them.
Korean lore: Traditionally, meeting someone you know in hell has sometimes been interpreted as worries tied to that person or a debt of the heart. Rather than taking it as proof that something bad will happen to them, it may be seen as your concern about the relationship coming through. (In folk dream interpretations, hell is often read as a place of guilt and fear, while the person appearing there is connected to the relationships in your heart.)
Through the mind: There may have been something that bothered you in your relationship with that friend recently, or feelings left unresolved. The scene may also have formed from feeling that you are carrying both your concern for them and your own problems.
