Korean lore: Traditionally, dreaming of looking at someone in a photograph has sometimes been interpreted as memories of that person or your connection with them coming back to mind. It may also be seen as a dream about reflecting on things from your family’s past. (In folk dream interpretations, portraits and photographs have been treated as objects symbolizing a connection with people held in memory.)
Through the mind: You may be comparing who you were, or what that relationship was like, with the present. If you felt unable to let go of the photograph, you may still need more time to sort through the past.
