Dreaming of Taking Medicine - dream meaning with inherited lore

You receive a packet of medicine or some pills and take them with water. They may taste bitter or get stuck in your throat, and you may feel a little relieved afterward.

Korean lore: Traditionally, taking medicine has sometimes been seen as finding a clue to solving a problem or gradually dealing with something stuck. The meaning may differ depending on the medicine’s taste and how you felt after taking it, from burdensome advice to helpful guidance. (In folk dream interpretations, medicine is read as a means of treatment and resolution, and the scene may be seen as finding a way to respond to difficulties.)

Through the mind: You may want to receive someone’s advice or practical help instead of holding out alone. This dream may also come when you know change is needed but feel somewhat burdened by how to make it happen.
