Dreaming of Burning a Will - dream meaning with inherited lore
It may be a scene where you sort through a desire to break free from past promises or other people's expectations.
You set fire to a will or a paper containing one and burn it. You may feel relieved as you watch the flames, or become anxious afterward.
Korean lore: Traditionally, burning a document has sometimes been seen as breaking away from old promises or obligations and moving into a new phase. In the case of a will, it has also been interpreted as letting go of duties carried within a relationship. (In folk dream interpretations, fire and documents are often read together as symbols of getting rid of and sorting things out. A will may represent the promises and wishes contained within it.)
Through the mind: A scene like this may arise when you no longer want to keep taking on the role your family or others expect of you. Relief after the flames may reflect a wish to set boundaries, while anxiety may reveal guilt about that choice.
