A Dream of Your Mother at a Funeral - dream meaning with inherited lore
Traditionally, a funeral scene has often been interpreted as a major change or the closing of a chapter, rather than as literal death.
Your mother stands at the funeral home or looks at you from among the mourners. You may remember the black clothes, chrysanthemums, and quiet hallway with striking clarity.
Korean lore: Traditionally, a funeral in a dream has sometimes been interpreted as a symbol of old worries or one stage ending and a new phase beginning. When the mother appears as well, it may be seen as a scene of reflecting on worries about family or changes in the relationship. (In folk dream interpretation, funerals and death have sometimes been understood as symbols of change and putting things in order, rather than as definite predictions of death in real life.)
Through the mind: When you are worried about your mother’s health or age, or about changes in your family, that anxiety may appear as a powerful image. The dream may also reflect a period when your role within the family is changing, such as a shift in independence and responsibility.
