Dreaming of sitting and resting by the water - dream meaning with inherited lore
You may want to pause for a while, settle your feelings, and catch your breath.
You sit by a river or lake and look at the water. You listen to the sound of the ripples or touch the water with your fingertips, staying there for a while.
Korean lore: There isn’t a clear, set folk interpretation for simply staying by the water. You can read the scene by focusing on the water’s condition and whether you felt at ease or hesitant in the dream. (This scene draws in a limited way on the common folk symbol of water as a flow of emotions.)
Through the mind: You may want to step away for a moment from a life that has kept you busy. If the water was calm, it may reflect wanting to rest; if you felt uneasy, it may reflect having a lot on your mind while things are paused.
