A dream about writing a letter to someone who has died - dream meaning with inherited lore
Traditionally, this is sometimes interpreted as holding onto longing or words left unsaid.
Thinking of someone you miss, you write a greeting or the words you wish you could say. You may be unable to send the finished letter, or hesitate for a long time with the envelope in hand.
Korean lore: 전통적으로는 세상을 떠난 이에게 편지를 쓰는 꿈을 그리움이나 마음속에 남은 말을 돌아보는 장면으로 풀이해 온 경우가 있어요. 꿈을 실제 연락이나 경고로 받아들이기보다는 그 사람과의 기억을 떠올리는 모습으로 보기도 해요. (민간 꿈풀이에서 고인과의 만남이나 편지를 그리움과 관계의 기억에 이어 읽는 흐름이 있어요.)
Through the mind: 전하고 싶었지만 미뤄 둔 말이나 함께했던 기억이 요즘 다시 떠오르고 있을 수 있어요. 편지에 적은 내용이 무엇이었는지 생각하면 지금 필요한 마음을 알아차리는 데 도움이 될 수 있어요.
