Dreaming of papers swept away by a tsunami - dream meaning with inherited lore
Some interpretations link this to worrying about missing something important or feeling unsteady in your preparations.
Papers left on a desk or in a drawer get soaked and swept away by the tsunami. You reach for them, but they slip through your fingers as you try to remember what was written on them.
Korean lore: Traditionally, a flood sweeping away something precious has sometimes been interpreted as worry about what you want to protect. A dream about losing something like documents, which can bring work or commitments to mind, may also reflect concern about letting something important slip. (In folk dream interpretations, objects carried away by water are sometimes read as reflecting worry about losing something.)
Through the mind: A scene like this may come up when something is on your mind, such as a deadline, contract, or paperwork to submit. The wish to check that you’re prepared may have appeared in the dream as something being swept away.
