![]() ![]() Okay, so the simple fact is that death dreams are about something in your life ending so that something new can begin. Again, you must focus on removing yourself from the emotional impact of the dream so that you can consider its symbolism and recognise its meaning and application to your life. Worse still, of course, are those terrifying dreams where you kill someone. Difficult, but it must be done if you are going to discover the huge personal rewards of understanding your dreams of death. It can be so hard to tear yourself away from the emotional impact of seeing someone you love die in a dream and to focus on the fact that the dream is about YOU – not about physical death, but about the death of old ways within you. The problem with death dreams is that they’re often so graphic, or they feature people you know and love which is emotionally devastating. How can you develop a new attitude if you are still clinging to the old? For change to happen, we need to end old attitudes, old ways of being or old beliefs because otherwise these old ways are in the way of the new. ![]() These are usually necessary to clear the way for new things to come into your life. For things to change, old habits often need to die.ĭeath in dreams is symbolic of things that are coming to a close, or ending, in your life. It is often the case that the new cannot be created until the old has ended. We see death all around us: the death of the old year gives way to the birth of the new, the death of winter leaves pave the way for the birth of spring leaves, the death of a crumbling old building allows a new one to be built in its place, the death of a relationship that is no longer working for either partner eventually opens the way for you both to begin new relationships and so on. This is why: Death as a symbol of something ending (Some people regularly dream of close friends and relatives at the moment of their passing, but this is rare, and even these dreams rarely give details of the actual deaths.) Death dreams are so common that if they were precognitive the human race would have become extinct long ago! If you think your death dream is precognitive you are missing a wonderful opportunity to open yourself to some new and amazing experiences in life, because this is what most death dreams are about: death of past ways of being to make way for new ways of being. It is true that some dreams do include details of the future, but these are rare. ![]() As a dream analyst I have discussed death dreams with thousands of people and 99.99% of those dreams were totally symbolic. I’m here to reassure you that your death dream is extremely unlikely to foretell anyone’s death. When you dream of the death of someone you know – including yourself – it is natural to worry whether the dream is precognitive – that is, whether it is a glimpse of the future, foretelling death. Can dreams predict death?īefore all of this though there is one really important message to get across and it is this. Finally I’ll discuss those dreams where you feel you are being haunted or visited by a spirit or presence. This article starts by discussing dreams of death and dying and what they mean and then moves on to look at dreaming about departed loved ones. They are also very common dreams although people are often too fearful to mention them. Dreams of death are perfectly normal and natural, even the horrific ones. (This article is copyright Jane Teresa Anderson.)ĭreams of death, dying and the departed can be extremely scary dreams but, once understood, they can be most insightful and freeing. These dreams hold the key to life (not death) – when you understand them. So don’t worry that your dream has predicted a death: that’s not what these dreams are about. Dreams about death – once analysed – help you to see your best way forward. Your death dreams are symbolic: they are not related to actual past, present or future deaths, but are extremely meaningful about your own past, present and future. ![]()
