Dream of lighting a candle at a temple - dream meaning with inherited lore

You sit before a candle inside the temple and carefully light it. Its small flame softly brightens the dark prayer hall and the area around the candle stand.

Korean lore: Traditionally, lighting a candle at a temple has sometimes been interpreted as praying for a wish and finding a way through a dark situation. It may also be seen as carrying a wish for the peace of family or someone close to you. (In folk dream interpretation, light has long represented wishes and hope, while a temple candle symbolizes sincerity and focused attention.)

Through the mind: You may have this dream when there is a goal or person you especially want to protect. The more uneasy you feel, the more it may reveal a wish to hold on to something you can do, however small.
