Mystics claim that the world of our dreams can be a connection with other worlds, inaccessible to our waking consciousness, so it is no coincidence that since ancient times, dreams of the dead were believed to be an important sign that they should not be. He was ignored.
The dead come to our dreams with a message, advice or warning that must be understood to avoid unnecessary problems and prevent ourselves from making mistakes, according to Sufis.
Psychologists believe that dreams about dead relatives or friends are just a manifestation of depression or feelings of guilt towards them.
However, let us take a closer look at the ambiguous point of view and try to understand the messages that can be carried by people who are now alive only in our memories and can only speak to us through our dreams.
Modern dream books often do not pay enough attention to several important nuances: what the dead look like in our dreams – dead in the grave, alive and happy, or they come back to life right before our eyes, or maybe we do not remember in our dream that this person died a long time ago.
Interpretations of dreams for the deceased
It is common that dreaming of a dead person (talking to him, listening to his advice, doing what he says) is a sign of unexpected news or changes in life. Christian dream interpretation books sometimes explain that we have such kind of dreams when the soul of our deceased relative or friend has not yet found peace, and advise additional ceremonies at the funeral and rest of the deceased (for example, if in the dream the dead person asks for water).
Pagan interpretations of dreams that have come down to us implicitly recommend obedience to everything the dead person asks to avoid the wrath of the gods. Although dreaming of dead people can be scary, it can sometimes be a good omen.
If a dead person comes back to life in your dream, it may mean that something lost will soon return (money, object, or even social status).
The English dream book interprets a dream about dead people as a sign of good events in the family, such as a wedding, the birth of a child, or something happy and prosperous. Another dream book says that seeing a dead relative in a dream before the wedding is a warning about the union. This dream indicates an unhappy marriage and warns that the children born in it will be sick and weak.
What about dreams of a deceased relative?
At this point, there is no definitive explanation, and you must always take into account many confounding factors. But most interpretations regarding the appearance of deceased relatives (especially parents) in a dream indicate a warning of trouble.
Sometimes dreams in which the sleeping person communicates with his deceased parents help to find inner peace, confidence and even influence success in work and family well-being.
