Scene by scene

- Dream of the Number 4Depends on the scene
Many people avoid the number 4 because in Korean it sounds like the word for death, but traditional dream reading also saw it as a solid foundation, like the four directions. A straight, upright 4 meant your groundwork is taking shape; a crumbling 4 meant take care of your health and safety.
Four suggests stability, like four corners. You may want to build an unshakable foundation, or you may be feeling small worries as big ones.
- Four pillars standing straight · A lucky dream: the foundation of your home or work grows sturdy.
- Entering a room marked 4 · Vague anxiety has grown, so comfort your heart.
- A 4 breaking apart · Cut back on an overloaded schedule and look after your body first.
Today's advice · Rather than fretting over numbers, taking good care of your sleep and meals today is the most reassuring thing.
- Dream of the Number 3Lucky dream
A clear number 3 in a dream has long been considered good, meaning harmony and completion. Just as heaven, earth, and people come together, it was read as things fitting well with those you work alongside.

- Three walking side by side · Things go well with reliable coworkers or friends.
