Dreaming of crumpling a talisman - dream meaning with inherited lore
You may feel frustrated that a trusted method isn’t working as hoped, or wish to crumple away the tension inside.
You tightly crumple the talisman in your hand and throw it into a pocket or onto the floor. The scene may continue with the paper refusing to unfold, or with you trying to smooth it back out.
Korean lore: Traditionally, dreaming of crumpling a talisman has sometimes been interpreted as protection losing its strength or as treating an existing source of support harshly. It may also be seen as part of sorting through old worries. (In folk dream lore, changes in the condition of a paper talisman have been read as changes in one’s sense of stability and faith in protection.)
Through the mind: You may feel frustrated because things have not worked out despite following a plan or someone’s advice. It may also feel like a sign that you want to crumple up the pressure to do everything perfectly, at least for a while.
