Dreaming of running, soaked by the rain - dream meaning with inherited lore
It may hold the feeling of carrying on while unable to fully escape your emotions or the situation around you.
You run along a street in pouring rain, your clothes and hair soaked, raindrops hitting your face. Unable to find an umbrella or shelter, you hurry on or keep going through the cold rain.
Korean lore: There isn’t one settled interpretation of running in the rain. Rain is sometimes read traditionally as an image of renewal or cleansing, but it’s hard to call running and getting soaked a good or bad omen outright. (I carefully drew on a folk tradition that reads rain as an image of cleansing or change.)
Through the mind: This scene may come up when emotions are running high or changes keep happening around you, and you feel you have to keep moving without a break. Whether you felt light or distressed in the rain may reflect how you’re experiencing your current circumstances.
