Dreaming of comparing someone else’s marriage with your own life - dream meaning with inherited lore
This may be a moment when happiness for someone else comes up alongside thoughts about your own life.
You watch the people at a wedding and compare their lives with your own love life or day-to-day life. You may feel rushed, or find yourself reassuring yourself that you’re doing okay.
Korean lore: There isn’t a clear traditional interpretation of scenes involving this kind of comparison. Alongside the common reading of marriage as change or a new relationship, it feels more natural to focus on what you actually felt in the dream. (I kept the folk symbolism of a wedding in mind and read the feeling of comparison as a scene from your present life.)
Through the mind: News of a wedding around you or choices made by people your age may have led you to reflect on your own pace and hopes. If you feel rushed, you can take time to sort out what you want and what comes from other people’s expectations.
