what does it mean when you dream about someone that has died?

No one really know what dreams really mean.  Maybe you were worried about your friends after they died and maybe that is why your friends respond by smiling and saying they were on vacation.  I like to think that when I dream of people in my life that passed away, they are just coming to say hello.  Look into your faith or beliefs for answers. Maybe that will help.  I hope I helped a little.

You mentioned that you thought of getting a hold of him and that you know that he lives in another country,wow that is some complex dream! But does this mean you know who he is? or his name? But anyway i have heard of dreams meaning something or dreams that are trying to tell you something.Some people say that you dream of people you knew in a past life,or mabe even a future husband.Or someone who will someday play a very important role in your life.You know if you keep paying attention to your dreams,perhaps one day your dreams just may answer your questions for you. Good luck and keep documenting.   oh yea and your not a crazy dreamer.......your a very complex dreamer there is a big difference....some very famous people were known to have dreams like yours again good luck and happy dreaming

i had a dream after my great grandpa died. it was in black and white and the only thing that was colored in the dream was the coffin (which was light blue) and his eyes (also blue).he was lying in the coffin holding a tweed hat. in the dream, we were at his funeral and everyone was crying and he opened his eyes, and looked at me and asked me why everyone was crying and i told him that it was because he was gone and we missed him and he told me to tell them to quit crying, that he was happy now and that he was with God in heaven and with my great grandma. and then he closed his eyes, and i told everyone he woke up, told me not to cry, that he was happy...don't be sad...well, that was 3 days before his funeral. i attended his funeral and his coffin was light blue and he was cluching the same tweed hat that was in my dream...and i didn't have any idea what he was going to wear and what color the coffin was. \n\nThe point is that i do believe that dreams mean something and i believe that sometimes God reaches us thru them and they are meant to send us messages either for peace of mind or to give others comfort. I believe that i was my grandfather's messenger to the family telling them that he was exactly where he wanted to be and that they shouldn't mourn. the thing is, i didn't really know my great grandpa well and maybe i was a bit objective and that is why i was chosen but i was able to give my family great comfort when his death was unexpected. he had been healthy, very healthy and he died fairly surprisingly. So anyway, that is my take on dreams. not all of them have a profound meaning or really happen, but the ones that do, should be listened to...

Ok, it was not last night but here is one : I dreamt of a dead uncle of mine. We weren't close at all and I have no sweet memories of him. He died of a cancer several years ago.\nTo tell it shortly, he put his hand on my shoulder and just said : "Everything's alright". I woke up with a strange feeling. As I told my dream to my family, someone noticed that it was his birthday ... He still "visits" my dreams sometimes but doesn't speak. Some wise man told me he may need some prayers ... I'm not a great believer so I light on candles for him ;o)

You should nurture it. You are gifted and you can use it for good.\nI don't know if I am psychic, but it seemed that if someone I know or related to someone I know dies, I would have this unexplainable dream. This happened numerous times I didn't want to keep a diary anymore because I am sick of it.\nThey were not nightmares, but for days I could remember how dark and weird the dreams were!

yes ive had dreams that have come true just because your body is asleep doesnt mean your soul and spirit are. Dreams are a spiritual way of telling us things when our bodies and thoughts are to busy to concentrate on things that may endanger us or make us happy.

Unfortunately, yes.  I wished (and dreamed) that this person was dead, as they were making my life a misery.\n\nThey did not die that day, but a day later, after talking to me and making up with me.\n\nIt was possibly the worst experience of my life.

Have you seen a horror film lately? The brain stores alot of information from what we hear, feel, see, sense, smell and touch even subconciously. It is likely that you felt fear sometime and the brain never let go of the emotion. You did not state how many nights, you've been dreaming this same dream. If you want an interpretation of your dream, as in a literal interpretation, you can check out dream guidelines. But as far as i know, death in dreams is more likely to be followed by death or grieving in real life. \n\nAlso, what is your religion? You could cast out your nightmares in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. \n\nEver heard of the word "twilight?" It means your half-asleep and half-awake. This could explain why you wake up feeling the pain you felt why dreaming.

Lots of times when dreaming the things in the dreams are actually symbols.  We cant take them too literally.  From what I understand when we dream we are being chased its because something in our life is bothering us, almost overwhelming, aproblem or decision to make that we havent resolved or made yet.  As for being killed, this problem or situation remains unresolved because we are trying to supress it instead of resolve it.  There are some interesting books about dream interpretation, but, if you really think about what is going on in our lives we can figure them out ourselves.  Its all personal anyway.

It's perfectly normal to dream of your own death.  The fact that your child is also in danger in your dream would imply that you have a lot of fear about losing him.  It does not mean that your dream will come true.  It just means your subconscious fear is manifesting itself.  It's a way for your subconscious mind to deal with stress that you don't know about.  However, if it makes you feel better, buy the tool.  You can never be too careful.  If your dreams continue and your panic continues, you should consider seeing a counselor for a while to work through those feelings.

death in a dream has two meanings either someone is going to be born or there is a new beginig maybe something has happened that was bad but it will end and something better will come of it

I know that various dreams were written and explained by ancient Chinese people in a book. I was looking online to explain your dream. So... basically you were killing someone, that actually means you are going to have really good luck, and the weird thing is the more bloody the scene was, the better luck you will have.

They symbolize the spirit of dead people. If they come into your house or land on you it means that a relative has died, or has come to visit you.

Some dreams are our subconcious telling us something were afraid of, something we feel guilty of , someone we miss, there are alot of different way to interpert dreams, especially if you are remembering this one, you may take a closer look and try and sort it out.

I can't tell you if those dreams were really your dad, but I can tell you that I had a dream about my grandfather about 4 months after he died, and it was the most vivid dream I've ever had.  I cried so hard when I saw him, he sat me down and told me that he knew I'd been worried about him, but not to be as he was fine, he'd crossed over.  It stuck out because I'd never used that phrase.  Whether or not it was Grandad, I found it a comfort, I must admit.  If you want to dream about your father, think about him while you're going to sleep.  I often find that if I run through something in my head enough just before I drop off, I'll dream about it.  Good luck, and I'm sorry to hear about your father.

I dont think theres anything "wrong" with you. You were in a relationship with someone who had a very strong impact on your life, and his life ended in a traumatic way for those who are living to deal with. The fact that you project in your dreams the wish that he was still alive is not necesarily anything out of the ordinary. Although some time has passed it doesnt mean that the person will ever necesarily drop out of your life altogether. Even once you have "moved on" he will still come up from time to time. Try and remember the best of what you two shared together, but also try and experience different oppertunites and allow new people to enter into your world.
