Dreaming of blowing out forty candles - dream meaning with inherited lore

Forty candles are set on a cake as people around you sing “Happy Birthday.” You blow them out all at once or in several breaths while receiving their congratulations.

Korean lore: Traditionally, lighting or blowing out candles has sometimes been interpreted as the end of one period and the beginning of another. A group celebrating together may also represent recognition from others or warmth in your relationships. (This interpretation comes from a folk dream-reading tradition that sees lights and celebratory scenes as symbols of vitality, commemoration, and transition.)

Through the mind: You may be conscious of your age and the passage of time while also wishing to have the person you have become recognized. If being celebrated felt good, it may reflect anticipation about change; if it felt awkward, it may reflect how you feel about others’ views of your age.
