Dream of a pilot light that won't catch - dream meaning with inherited lore

You press the lighter again and again, but the pilot light won't catch. Your finger may start to hurt, or you may grow impatient waiting for it to light.
Korean lore: In traditional interpretations, repeatedly failing to light a fire is sometimes read as energy being temporarily blocked. But details like this don’t have many established meanings, so it may be better to focus on the frustration you felt in the dream. (In folk dream interpretations, a fire that won’t catch is often read as an image of being stuck or delayed.)
Through the mind: You may feel that your efforts aren’t getting a response, or feel worn out from trying the same thing again and again. Maybe right now you want to see what’s needed instead of pushing harder.
