A Dream of Praying While Looking at the Sea - dream meaning with inherited lore
It may be a scene where the wish to find direction in the face of a problem or emotion bigger than yourself appears as a wide-open landscape.
You stand on the shore or a breakwater and pray while watching the waves. The sea may be calm, or you may raise your voice in prayer before large waves.
Korean lore: Traditionally, dreams of praying before a vast sea have sometimes been interpreted as reflecting the feeling of facing major change or something difficult to grasp. If the sea is calm, they may also be seen as a sign of finding your direction. (In folk dream interpretation, the sea is sometimes read as the broad course of one's fortunes or life, while prayer before it is linked to an earnest wish.)
Through the mind: You may be facing something hard to control on your own, such as changing jobs, moving, or a shift in a relationship. At the same time, your wish to see broader possibilities than you do now may have appeared through the image of the sea.
