Dream of Bowing Before an Urn - dream meaning with inherited lore
Bowing before an urn may appear as a dream about showing respect to someone who has passed and reflecting on your role in the family.
Before the place where the urn is kept, I bend at the waist and bow. Even after finishing, I cannot lift my head for a while, or I sense my family nearby.
Korean lore: Traditionally, bowing before someone who has passed or before an ancestor has sometimes been interpreted as a scene of respect, remembrance, and confirming family ties. It may also be seen as trying to settle something weighing on your heart and show proper respect. (In folk dream interpretation, bowing and memorial rituals have traditionally been read as scenes of devotion toward ancestors and family, and of examining the order within relationships.)
Through the mind: You may be taking the responsibility or courtesy you feel you owe your family very seriously. The act of bowing in the dream could also reflect a wish to apologize to someone or express your gratitude.
