Dreaming of throwing away incense - dream meaning with inherited lore
It may connect to a wish to finally sort through a memory or the atmosphere of a relationship you have held onto for a long time.
You throw a partly burned incense stick or burner into the trash. You may feel it is a shame to waste it, yet feel relieved afterward.
Korean lore: Traditionally, throwing away incense has sometimes been seen as letting go of the past or a heavy energy. If you felt a strong sense of regret, it has also been interpreted as feeling that you are losing something precious. (This interpretation combines the folk view of incense as an object of cleansing and remembrance with the meaning of throwing something away.)
Through the mind: The dream may reflect a wish to clear up one part of your relationships, work, or daily habits. Whether you felt relieved or regretful afterward may show your present state of mind more clearly.
