Dreaming of an Illness Getting Worse - dream meaning with inherited lore
Traditionally, this has sometimes been seen as a scene reflecting worries or problems gradually growing larger.
In the dream, your pain grows worse or your illness deepens until it becomes hard to hold yourself up. You may want to ask those around you for help, but find that the words do not come easily.
Korean lore: Traditionally, a dream of an illness getting worse has sometimes been interpreted as growing worry or pressure. Rather than determining your actual health in the future, it may show a concern that feels large inside you. (In folk dream interpretations, the severity of an illness has been compared with current worries or energy that feels blocked.)
Through the mind: This scene may appear when one worry keeps growing until it feels hard to handle. You may also be noticing physical fatigue and anxiety all at once.
