A Dream of the Wind Blowing Out Birthday Candles - dream meaning with inherited lore
Traditionally, a moment when the wind disrupts something you looked forward to has sometimes been read as a change of plans or a disappointment.
As you light the candles on a cake or get ready to make a wish, a gust blows out the flames. You’re left wondering whether to light them again or let them be.
Korean lore: Traditionally, a light going out just before a planned undertaking has sometimes been read as a plan temporarily stalling or hopes wavering. Whether you lit it again may also suggest an effort to steady yourself. (This reading draws on folk interpretations that connect the relationship between a flame and the wind with the momentum or changes surrounding a planned undertaking.)
Through the mind: This scene may appear when you worry that something you looked forward to could hit a snag, or feel that your wish to be celebrated hasn’t been fully met. Think back to whether anything recently left you disappointed in your plans or relationships.
