What does it mean to dream about someone who is dead but your dream that person is dead and you know it but other people dont?

Answer 1

If the person in this dream has recently died, the dream might be part of the grieving process. The dream represents the dreamer's difficulty in accepting the reality of the person's death. In the dream, "you" are the intellect, which understands that the person is dead, and "other people" represent the emotions, memories, and other aspects of the Self.

Answer 2

It means that that person had some trait or interest or philosophy in common with you and you are empathizing with him/her.

The dreamer's mind could be using that person to represent something; for instance, dreams of Princess Diana might represent the dreamer's longing for a fairy-tale romance, while dreams of a deceased distant relative might suggest interest in one's family history.

Answer 3

This dream reflects the dreamer's own struggle to accept the reality and finality of death. It also suggests that the dreamer feels the need to resolve some unfinished business or express something to the deceased; perhaps there is simply a need to say, "Goodbye." The dream can be an opportunity to experience a sense of closure or to express what needs to be said, all in the security of sleep.
