Dream of an interviewer refusing a handshake - dream meaning with inherited lore
It can reflect worry that a connection may not form or that your efforts may not be accepted.
After the interview, you reach out your hand, but the interviewer doesn’t, or simply walks past. Awkwardness and hurt linger, and you keep wondering why you were rejected.
Korean lore: Traditionally, an unsuccessful handshake has sometimes been interpreted as a sign that a promise or collaboration is not going smoothly. Rather than determining what will actually happen, it may simply show your wariness about the relationship. (This interpretation comes from the folk tradition of reading the act of clasping hands as a symbol of connection and agreement.)
Through the mind: You may be remembering a time when you wanted someone's recognition or wanted to be together, but their response was different from what you expected. The burden may not be the rejection itself, but the fact that you were the one who reached out first.
