A dream in which a sibling refuses to help - dream meaning with inherited lore

You ask your sibling for a favor, but they shake their head or turn away, saying they're busy. You may be left feeling hurt and at a loss, with the sense that you have to solve everything alone.

Korean lore: Traditionally, asking a close family member for help and not receiving it has sometimes been interpreted as a mismatch between expectations in the relationship. Rather than declaring misfortune, it can also be viewed as a signal to look again at each person’s role and boundaries. (In folk dream interpretation, requests and refusals between family members have been read as a relationship where reliance and burden move back and forth.)

Through the mind: There may be something you need to ask someone for, but you may be holding back because you do not want to burden them. Long-standing hurt with your sibling, or guilt about receiving help, may also have surfaced in the dream.
