What does it mean when you dream about someone that is already dead?

Answer 1

When you dream about a person who is dead it probably means...

That you miss the person. Or maybe it means that it is a special day and you did something that you did with them that means bringing back sad memories.

Probably that you miss the person and that you want to be with them right then. I still dream about my Grandma. Normally I miss her and just the thought can make you dream about them. Every year the day my Grandma died I think about her and I really miss her because we had a strong connection. This is just to tell you memories when you cried usally it makes you laugh, And memories when you laugh it usally makes you cry. So bottom line you miss them and that you want to be with them.

Dreams of the dead can have different meanings depending on many, many factors. The link (below) provides several examples with further discussion.

Answer 2

I don't really believe that our dreams have too deep of a meaning other than that person may have been on your mind, or something in your dream reminded you (subconsciously of course) of that person.

According to a 'dream dictionary' I found online, the interpretation can have different meanings dependent on who the deceased person in your dream was and what the rest of the dream was about.

Answer 3

Your subconcious is trying to tell you something, do you have any regrets about that person? Unsolved anger? Perhaps you are still in mourning so that you were thinking of them often. I highly doubt it has some occult meaning. I doubt it was a supernatural encounter. You need to look inside your heart and answer the question for yourself.

Addition information about the question: this is the same person whom I turned my problems to when she was still alive (she is the sister of my grandmother). On my dream, everything is green - her hair, her skin, her dress. The next morning, I went to the cemetery and the candle that was sold there is colored green, which is the only color available. Please help me I need to know what does this really mean. There might be a message that my grandmother would like us to know.

The color of the candle in the cemetery is not likely to have any significance; there are many mundane ways that information could have been known and reflected in the dream. However, the color green is significant in the dream itself.

... Green is the color of life, symbolizing the renewal of life in the springtime. In this dream, it suggests that the deceased Aunt has moved on to a new stage or form of life, such as taught in many faith traditions. The message of the dream is one of comfort, that death is not the last word, and that both life and loving relationships continue beyond the grave.

Answer 5

If the death is fairly recent, this dream suggests that your subconscious mind has come to accept the reality and finality of the death. See the link below for further discussion of this sort of dream.

Answer 6

Freud says that dreams are wish fulfillment. If you miss the person and want to see them again, then it is logical that you will see them in your dreams.

It is natural to dream about a deceased loved one or friend while you are mourning their loss. Such dreams provide release of emotions and help the subconscious mind accept the reality and finality of the loss. If the death was long ago, or if this was not a person for whom you are grieving, then it could merely be that something in the past days brought this someone to your memory, which in turn triggered the dream. But there are many possibilities, depending on your relationship with the "someone" in your dream. See the link attached below for further discussion and examples.
