A Dream of Saying Goodbye by the River - dream meaning with inherited lore
Parting by a river can reflect a relationship moving in different directions or a willingness to accept time gone by.
Two people standing side by side by the river exchange farewells and walk in different directions. You may hear the river flowing or see one person cross it and grow distant.
Korean lore: Traditionally, parting by flowing water has sometimes been read as a scene reflecting the passage of time or changes in a relationship. The flow of the river and the feelings in the dream may be considered together. (We drew on a folk tendency to read the course of a relationship through flowing water as a metaphor for time and change.)
Through the mind: You may be trying to accept a relationship’s changes even as you notice it isn’t what it used to be. It may help to think back on whether anything from the past still weighs on you.
