A Dream of Your Boss Apologizing - dream meaning with inherited lore
It may reveal a wish to have the hurt or unfairness you felt at work acknowledged, even belatedly.
As you prepare to quit or after you’ve already left, your boss comes over and says they’re sorry. You either accept the apology or can’t answer because your feelings are still unresolved.
Korean lore: Traditionally, receiving an apology from someone you were in conflict with has sometimes been seen as old feelings settling or a knot in the relationship loosening. Rather than assuming the person in real life has actually changed, it feels more natural to connect this with sorting through your own feelings. (In folk dream interpretation, scenes of apology and reconciliation are sometimes read as symbols of resolving conflict and changing relationships.)
Through the mind: A dream may create the recognition or explanation you never received in real life. It may also be part of letting go of anger and regret while整理ing your reasons for resigning.
