Dream Symbol: dead acquaintance

dead acquaintance

A dead person whom you knew (or knew of) in real life can represent that person, or your memory of that person.

Seeing such a person in a dream can mean they are particularly on your mind right now, perhaps because you've been thinking about them or would like to interact with them, because a significant date (birthday, anniversary, etc.) is near, because you're curious about how they are or what they might think about something in your life right now, etc.

Tips to Understand Dream Meaning

Dream symbol meanings are different for each person. It's IMPORTANT to consider:

  • Personal meaning - What the dream symbol means to you, what it reminds you of, how it makes you feel.
  • Context - How the dream symbol appears in the dream. For example, in a dream about a bee - what was the bee doing, how and where it was doing it, and how did you feel about it?
  • Look beyond the obvious - A dream is often about something other than its obvious meaning. Physical events in the dream commonly represent mental or emotional matters.
