Dreaming of smiling in a mirror - dream meaning with inherited lore
A smile in the mirror is sometimes thought to connect with how you’re accepting yourself as you are now.
As you look in the mirror, your reflection smiles first or smiles regardless of your expression. The smile may feel natural or strangely unfamiliar.
Korean lore: Traditionally, a scene where your reflection and laughter appear together has sometimes been interpreted as a dream of examining your fortune or emotional flow. If your expression was relaxed, it may be seen as worries beginning to ease. (In folk dream interpretations, a mirror has traditionally been treated as a symbol reflecting your appearance and current state, while laughter is a clue to reading emotional change.)
Through the mind: You may be checking the gap between how you appear to others and how you actually feel. The scene may also show a wish to accept yourself a little more comfortably.
