Dream of burying rotten food - dream meaning with inherited lore

You put rotten food in a bag or box, bury it in the ground, and cover it with soil. You may feel relieved afterward, or anxious that it could come back to the surface.

Korean lore: Traditionally, burying something rotten has sometimes been interpreted as creating distance from a troublesome matter or settling a past loss. If the feeling of hiding it was strong, it may point more to postponing the issue than resolving it. (In folk dream interpretations, burying something is read as both an ending and an act of concealment. The nature of the concern is understood differently depending on whether the object is food or something rotten.)

Through the mind: A relationship or situation you want to believe is over may still remain somewhere in your heart. Looking at the relief and anxiety you felt in the dream may help you notice whether you are giving yourself time to process it or simply covering it up.
