A dream of looking at a faded memorial portrait - dream meaning with inherited lore
It may be a scene of becoming aware of memories and longing that grow dimmer with time.
The memorial portrait has faded, or part of the photo looks blurry with age. You look closely, trying to make out the face or expression.
Korean lore: Traditionally, a faded portrait has sometimes been interpreted as a trace of an old connection and time gone by. It may also be seen as part of letting longing grow lighter or holding on to a memory again. (In folk dream interpretations, an old, faded photo is often read as a scene symbolizing a relationship shaped by time and the traces left by memory.)
Through the mind: You may feel sorry that you seem to be forgetting someone who has passed away, or you may be in the process of accepting the natural fading of memory. Sorting through old photos or belongings may also have carried into the dream.
