Dreaming of Having a Mirror Taken Away - dream meaning with inherited lore
A scene where someone takes your mirror away may connect to feeling that another person is controlling your image or choices.
Someone takes away the mirror you were holding or the one in your room. You may chase after it to get it back, or feel frustrated because you can no longer see yourself.
Korean lore: Traditionally, dreams of losing or having a mirror taken away have sometimes been connected to a sense of loss in one's dignity or relationships. Rather than predicting an actual event, they have often been interpreted as symbolizing the feeling that your right to show yourself has diminished. (In folk dream interpretation, mirrors are seen as symbols of reputation and self-image, while losing one is read as an image of loss.)
Through the mind: You may have this dream when your opinions are being drowned out at work or within your family, or when you are losing sight of your own choices while trying to meet other people's expectations. It may also be a time when someone else's judgment strongly affects your self-esteem.
