Dreaming of an incense fire spreading - dream meaning with inherited lore
Traditionally, this has sometimes been interpreted as reflecting worry that a small matter might grow bigger than expected.
An ember at the tip of the incense catches on something nearby, such as paper or cloth. You look for water to put it out or ask someone nearby for help.
Korean lore: Traditionally, dreams of incense flames spreading have sometimes been interpreted as a fear that one emotion or situation might grow beyond your control. They may also be seen as long-suppressed passion finally coming out. (In folk dream interpretation, fire symbolizes both energy and change, so attention is often paid to the direction in which it spreads and to whether you put it out or watched it in the dream.)
Through the mind: You may have this dream when you feel that a small problem at work or in a relationship is growing quickly. If you succeeded in putting out the fire in the dream, it may also show your strength to sort out the situation in real life.
