Dreaming of reuniting with a friend who has passed away - dream meaning with inherited lore

In the dream, your friend appears as they were in life, speaks to you as usual, or sits beside you. Joy and sadness wash over you together, and their words or expression may stay with you long after you wake.

Korean lore: Traditionally, meeting someone who has passed away in a dream has sometimes been interpreted as longing or as part of sorting through a past relationship. Rather than assuming they came to deliver a message, it can also be seen as a dream where the memories held by those left behind appear. (In folk dream interpretations, the appearance of someone who has passed away has often been read as a symbol of memories and emotions after loss, and of the bonds that remain.)

Through the mind: There may recently have been something that reminded you of your friend, such as an anniversary, a photograph, or a familiar place. An unspoken goodbye or thank-you may also have reappeared in your heart in the form of a conversation.
