Dreaming of going down stairs in the dark - dream meaning with inherited lore

The stairs below are dark, and each time you step down, you can barely see the next one. You may feel uneasy as you feel along the wall or pause for a moment.

Korean lore: Traditionally, going down stairs has sometimes been interpreted as a decline in one's circumstances or taking a step back. If the darkness stands out, some interpretations see it as a time when it's hard to tell what lies ahead. (This draws on folk interpretations that compare going up or down stairs to one's circumstances or the course of events.)
