Dreaming of the Grim Reaper Crossing a River - dream meaning with inherited lore
Crossing a river may reflect your feelings as you move from a familiar stage into the next, rather than pointing to an irreversible change.
The Grim Reaper crosses a river or stream while you watch from the bank. The water may be calm, or the other side may be hard to see.
Korean lore: Traditionally, crossing a river or other water has sometimes been interpreted as touching on life’s boundaries and changes. The Grim Reaper crossing may also be seen as a scene where an old worry or period of life is moving farther away. (Folk dream lore has read water and bridges as images of boundaries, adding meanings of transition and closure when they appear alongside the Grim Reaper.)
Through the mind: You may be troubled by leaving a familiar place, such as graduating, living independently, or changing jobs. If you could not see the other side, you may still be finding it hard to gauge what the change will bring.
