Dreaming that I close my eyes in the mirror - dream meaning with inherited lore
This may show feelings you don’t want to face or a wish to rest for a while.
You’re standing before the mirror with your eyes open, but your reflection’s eyes are tightly shut. It may not open them no matter how much you call, or it may close them briefly and open them again.
Korean lore: Traditionally, closed eyes in a mirror have sometimes been linked to something you want to avoid or feelings you have not yet faced. Opening your eyes at the end may be seen as a process of confronting the situation. (In folk dream interpretation, eyes and mirrors can symbolize the power to see and judge, so meaning has often been attached to scenes of closing or opening the eyes.)
Through the mind: This scene may appear when you need to make a decision but fear finding out the result, or when you want to rest for a while without seeing anything at all. It may help to look back and ask whether you are demanding an answer from yourself too quickly.
