What does it mean when you dream of killing your father?

Answer 1

It means like you've never realizing his importance as your guidance yet.

Answer:

This rather common dream refers to your growing independence and the natural urge to break free from the limitations of childhood. In dreams, your father represents the authority and restrictions that guided and protected you in your early years. Your dream does not mean that you secretly want to murder your own dad; the dream is a metaphor, like a cartoon. As you become more mature, that authority shifts from the "father" outside yourself to your own inner authority or conscience. In other words, you become self-governing. The dream pictures this shift in the overly dramatic and very classic image of killing the father.

> Dreams of killing one's father received a great deal of interest and study in 20th Century psychology due to Sigmund Freud's development of the theory of the Oedipus Complex.

Answer 2

Dreams do not necessarily mean anything. Freud's Interpretation of Dreams has been thoroughly debunked. The sleeping brain "dreams up" the little skits, based on our experience and personality, in response to nocturnal stimuli. The people in your dream are not the people in your life - they only seem to be.

Answer 3

It means you want a father figure in your life again if you don't already have one....for instance if you have dreams about Danny Glover or Morgan Freeman, in the black community they represent an African-American father figure. So most of the time when you have dreams about your dead uncle, you're longing for another father figure.

Answer 4

Nobody can interpret this better than you can yourself. If you are in danger - if you are being physically or sexually abused, YOU MUST TELL SOMEONE AND GET HELP. You deserve to be safe. You can tell one of your teachers, the school counselor or principal, a nurse or doctor, or your pastor, priest or rabbi.

Having said that, and if you are in a safe situation, the dream can mean different things. It depends very much on your age and your situation in life. You may feel that your parents, or someone else with authority over you such as you boss or spouse, is preventing you from doing or being what you feel you must do or be. If you are still living in your parents' home and not yet an adult, remember that everything will change as you mature. The situation you are in now is temporary, and soon you will be in control of your own life, and responsible for your own choices.

Answer 5

This means one of 2 things:

1.) They are doing bad like doing drugs or killing and putting others to harm.

2.) You worry to much about them. You must talk to them about your dream.

Answer 6

This dream suggests that you are anxious that something from your past could resurface to cause you serious trouble. This might be something associated with your late father, such as an inherited illness or a family weakness, or even financial problems that have not been resolved.

Answer 7

The dream's meaning depends on whether your uncle actually is alive or whether he has passed away. If he is living, the dream suggests that your relationship with him is changing. He might represent your family in general. If you are maturing from childhood into adulthood, or experiencing some other significant transition, this dream about death is a metaphor representing the end of one way of relating to your family and the beginning of a new, more mature relationship.

Answer 8

The meaning of this dream could depend who "they" are. Generally speaking, teens and young adults tend to dream of the death of parents as part of the process of breaking parent/child dependencies and setting off to establish a life of one's own. The diminishing influence of the parent can be illustrated as the parents' "death" in dreams. A more specific interpretation would require more information about the dream, its setting and its emotional tone.
