A dream of holding someone and not letting go - dream meaning with inherited lore
Traditionally, this has sometimes been read as a scene where a relationship or feeling you don’t want to lose still lingers.
You hold the other person tightly, and even when they try to pull away, you can’t easily let go. As you hold them, you may feel glad to see them, anxious, or frustrated all at once.
Korean lore: Traditionally, this has sometimes been interpreted as not wanting to let someone go, or as lingering feelings about a relationship. Depending on the other person's expression and how you felt in the dream, it may be seen as a tender moment or as a reflection of emotional strain. (In folk dream interpretations, an embrace is often seen as a scene that reveals affection and feelings about a relationship.)
Through the mind: You may be worried about drifting apart lately, or have a conversation left unfinished on your mind. You may also be feeling both a desire to hold on to the other person and a wish for your feelings to be respected.
