What does mean when your husband is calling your name in a dream He passed away in August. He kept calling me to find him. I was running and running and I couldn't find him. What does this mean?

Answer 1

This dream expresses your own grief and loss. It does not provide any information about the condition of your late husband's spirit, and it does not predict any future death or loss.

> After losing a spouse to death, it is perfectly normal to dream of the deceased. Your experience of grief will be different from others' experiences, and your mourning process must take as long as it takes, whether that is a full year or many years.

> Dreams function as a way for your subconscious mind (your soul) to cope with deep emotions, including the struggle to accept the reality and finality of your loss. The dream metaphor of running and searching for the dead is not at all unusual. It is poignantly expressed in the classic film Gone With The Wind, when Scarlett runs searching for Rhett in the fog. (Although it was his love that had died to her.)
