Dreaming of something obscuring your reflection - dream meaning with inherited lore

You face a mirror, but something like a cloth, a hand, or a shadow blocks the reflection. Even when you try to move it, you may still have trouble seeing yourself.

Korean lore: There is no clear, established interpretation of a scene where your reflection is obscured. Since mirrors have traditionally been seen as symbols of your circumstances, an obscured reflection is sometimes linked to a frustrating situation or hesitation in a relationship. (This interpretation draws on a common folk view of mirrors as objects that reflect who you are.)

Through the mind: You may find it hard to show someone how you really feel, or have feelings you haven’t sorted out yourself. Recalling what obscured your reflection may offer a clue to what’s weighing on you.
