Here's my dream
- This has really been bothering me. Please
help. Four months ago a guy named Ron that I've been in love
with since I was 15 was killed by his stepdad by being shot
in the chest; afterwards his stepdad shot himself. I've had
three dreams about Ron. In one dream, I was riding down this
long dirt road and I pulled up to this huge house in the woods
and got out of my car, walked up to the door and knocked. Ron
opened the door and just stood there. He stared at me with blood
shot eyes and I asked him about 7 times, ''Ron what are you
looking at?'' He said nothing just stared. Then the dream went
to me, Ron and his stepdad standing in a circle talking. They
were talking about fishing, something they always used to do.
About 3 weeks after he died I had been wondering to myself if
he loved me and I asked him out loud if he did. Afterwards,
I dreamed he was talking to me (although I didn't see him),
and I heard his voice respond and say, "Yes I love you..." The
other dream I had was that I was watching a video of a party
and he was walking around on the video talking and all the sudden,
he stopped and looked at the camera, staring once again, for
maybe 30 seconds then went back to what he was doing. Please
help me with this as I've asked everyone possible and no one
can help. –
Dear
Dreamer,
Quite simply, Ron has been trying to communicate with you the
fact that he is aware of you, he is aware of what has occurred,
he does love you, and he may have even already made peace with
his stepfather over what happened. The Edgar Cayce material
suggests that our loved ones who have passed away often try
to communicate in the dream state. With this in mind, the first
dream (about staring) suggests that Ron has been watching over
you. The second dream (where he said he loved you) was real
communication. And the third dream (related to the video camera)
suggests that Ron has been reviewing his own life as well as
his connection to you. If you would like to read more about
this kind of communication, see the dream archives. Also, let
me recommend the book, Testimony of Light,
by Helen Greaves. –
Here's
my dream... My boyfriend
died by suicide in February. I finally had a dream where he
came to me. All I remember is that he was lying down, as how
he looked when I last saw him in the casket. And all of the
sudden he moved a bit. I told myself that I was seeing things,
so I looked again and he rolled over as if he was enjoying a
good night's sleep. So I then put my fingers on his neck to
check for a pulse...nothing. I became really scared and didn't
know what to do. "This isn't happening," I told myself. But
it was so real. Then his eyes opened. He didn't look good; he
looked like a corpse. I guess because that's how I'd seen him
last. But his eyes weren't normal. It looked as if he hadn't
opened them in awhile and he had to adjust to the light. But
it scared me because he looked scary! So I ran away. But I'd
look behind me and there he was chasing me. But it was weird
because he was as fast as lightening. Finally I stopped running
because I realized he wasn't going to stop. And in the end of
the dream we were facing each other and I was looking up at
him (he was taller than me) and I could see the sky above him.
I don't know what it was but I felt something and saw a subtle
light in the sky. So I asked him, "You have to go now don't
you?" He looked at me and said, "Yes I do." And then gave me
a kiss. And that's all I remember, but it was so real and I
just don't know how to interpret it. I think he came to me in
this dream. I feel like he was trying to tell me something...perhaps
that he's okay?
Dear
Dreamer,Yes,
I think your boyfriend was trying to reassure you and to communicate
that he still loves you. Edgar Cayce suggested that communication
between the living and the deceased was quite common in the
dream state. Let me suggest two books for you to read: TESTIMONY
OF LIGHT, by Helen Greaves, and THE
PLACE WE CALL HOME, by Robert Grant. The reason he looked
so bad in the dream may have been twofold: 1) so that you remembered
the experience upon awakening; and, 2) because an individual
who commits suicide generally has a harder time making the transition
to the other side. He appears to be okay now. Please read the
books. It will help. –
Here's
my dream... I am a
member of A.R.E. My best friend of 50 years died a few years
ago and within a couple of months I had the following dream:
My doorbell rang and I ran to open the door but before I did,
I heard her voice out in the hall saying, "Oh, you are the only
one..." I yanked open the door and she finished saying, "Who
has her Christmas decorations up!" I said: "You're here! You
made it!!" She said: "Yes, I did" and she came into my apartment.
She was carrying a life-size wooden die-cut of a Victorian street
lamp with an attached candlesnuffer drawn on it. It was beautifully
painted in shades of blue. There was snow painted on the top
of the lamp and a lovely lit candle was painted on it. I tried
to embrace her but she blocked my arms and handed me the board.
She said: "This is a gift for you from Christopher" (Christopher
is her son who turned to carpentry after being a Wall Street
broker). I started to cry and woke up. I looked at my clock
and it read 4:48 a.m. This friend was English and lived through
the blitz in London and was terribly afraid that this material
life is all there is. I spent a lot of time before she passed
away of breast cancer, talking to her about the Edgar Cayce
concepts of life and death so I get that she was letting me
know that she was okay and in the light; I'm not sure what the
significance of the lamp is. I would deeply appreciate your
insights into this dream.
Dear
Dreamer,
As you know, Edgar Cayce suggested that communication with our
deceased loved ones is very possible in the dream state. With
this in mind, I think you are right - your friend was trying
to let you now that she was "in the light" or had found the
light. I think that her comments related to you having your
Christmas decorations up, suggested that she had come to understand
that your faith was a year-round activity and not simply something
related to the Holidays. It is interesting that Chris gave up
one job to do something he really wanted. Two possibilities
are that she has been "helped" in her transition through the
efforts of her son (and his prayers) and/or she is trying to
let you know that you need to continue to do what you really
want, rather than being perhaps bogged down by material concerns.
If you haven't already done so, you might really enjoy the book
TESTIMONY OF LIGHT, by Helen Greaves.
Thanks for writing.–
Here's
my dream... My husband
told me last night that he had a dream that I died and the only
thing he remembers is being distraught with grief and sobbing
uncontrollably. He cannot remember much else from the dream,
like how I died. Since I'm the one who died, it makes me kind
of nervous of a prediction or that he has some unresolved feelings
towards me or that he no longer loves me (me dying in his dream
represents his love for me dying) which I really don't believe
to be the case because we are happily married. What else can
I interpret from this? I searched the archives but only found
dreams about death relating to those that are already deceased.
Thank you for your time.
Dear
Dreamer, It
could be a "warning dream" that is simply trying to get you
to have a checkup, so that you can receive the medical treatment
you need. In addition to being a literal tumor, a metaphorical
tumor is associated with something that is causing a great deal
of worry, frustration, depression or anxiety. In other words,
is there something on your mind that you can no longer repress?
Just to be on the safe side, I generally recommend that whenever
an individuals dreams about a health issue they see a doctor
immediately. –
Here's
my dream... I had two dreams on Saturday about my
cousin, whom I really looked up to and was close to. He spent
the past summer living up with my family and working with my
uncle and I. He died in November (cause unknown). I've been
really depressed since then and I was wondering if you could
help me interpret my two dreams: In the first dream, my cousin
was being submerged under boiling, dark water and he told me,
"Take out your earring or you're going to go too..." and then
my alarm clock went off! I went back to sleep and had another
dream about him. In this one, he was in my house and he went
downstairs so I followed; he said, "Remember...I'm the one who
called..." That's all he said! I haven't had a dream since then
and have been looking forward to them. Could it really be him?
I miss him so much and I don't feel whole without him. Please
help me. Thank you.
Dear
Dreamer,To
answer your last question first, yes, in all likelihood it was
him and you were having a real encounter with him. According
to Edgar Cayce, communication is possible in the sleep state
with our loved ones who are deceased. Let me also recommend
that you read the book, TESTIMONY OF LIGHT,
by Helen Greaves, so you can see how this communication
occurs, as well as what your cousin may be going through right
now. The first dream suggests that your cousin was under a lot
of emotional pressure and even depression at the time of his
death. His reference to your earring could suggest that he thinks
you are listening to someone or a group who may be a bad influence
and you may need to turn lose of your attachment to those individuals.
Alternatively, it could suggest that he is encouraging you to
do something differently so that you have a more positive/hopefully
life experience. I hope that helps. Please consider reading
the Helen Greaves book as soon as you can.–
Here's
my dream... I'm 16
and I'm not sure about religion or spirituality and all that
but in one dream I had, I talked to my dead grandmother and
I knew she wasn't suppose to be alive or whatever so I asked
her "So is there really a god or not?" she replied, "Of course
there isn't, you knew that." She said it like she was so sure..
Dear Dreamer,
Let me first
of all reassure you that there is a God and that countless individuals
have experienced being in God's presence. Let me recommend several
books for you to read: Life After Life,
by Raymond Moody, Testimony of Light, by Helen Greaves,
and I Am With You Always, by G. Scott
Sparrow. In terms of your grandmother's words, it's important
to know that individuals do not instantly become enlightened
once they are deceased. In fact, if your grandmother didn't
believe in God while she was alive, she would not believe in
God (at least for a time) after being dead. Our consciousness
grows and expands throughout a series of lifetimes. Let me recommend
that you read, Children's Past Lives,
by Carol Bowman, as well. It is natural for you to wonder
about the existence of God - let me just assure you that as
long as you try to find the Divine, the divine will reach out
and try to connect with you. God bless on your search! ––
Here's
my dream... I had a dream last night that is really
disturbing to me. I dreamt that I was on a body of water canoeing
with my 3-year-old daughter and my father. There was a bear
swimming towards us in an angry manner. We got to the land and
wound up in Greece. We go to my grandmother's house she past
away a few yrs ago she has never meet my daughter ever. She
was hugging her and wouldn't let go of us she was trying to
tell me something I didn't understand what she was telling me
because she spoke Greek. But I felt like she was trying to warn
me. Then my father drops dead. The next thing I'm doing is looking
in a mirror crying and saying I want my daddy back over and
over. While my grandmother just stood there, holding my daughter.
There was more but I can't remember. I know she was telling
me my daughter was beautiful which I got in English but the
rest was in Greek. Please help this is really bothering me I'm
making my father go to the doctor to get checked out...
Dear
Dreamer, Sometimes
we have "warning dreams" about possible futures, as a means
of getting us to do something to change that future. For example,
your getting your father to see the doctor may be exactly what
he needs. Edgar Cayce would suggest that it is possible to communicate
with loved ones who are deceased - you may wish to read Testimony
of Light, by Helen Greaves, to see how that's possible
- and that is it also possible to dream potential futures before
they happen - you may wish to read, Edgar
Cayce on the Akashic Records, by Kevin Todeschi, for
more on that subject. The dream may also be suggesting that
when it comes time for your father to leave, your mother will
be right there to get him.––
Here's
my dream... Please help! My mother has been dead for
3 years. Last night I dreamed that she were waiting on me in
a car in front of a house I stayed in when I was small. Apparently
I took too long and I do remember her coming in the house but
she changed clothes when she came in and she teased my son about
his shoes and began laughing as she left. I asked her about
my cousin, whom had died about 2 years earlier and she said
she is coming in your car. When I checked my pocket in my dream,
I had my keys! It is all so strange. I do not dream much at
all so this one is really pressing me to dream about two deceased
relatives. I cannot really bring all of it back but I think
my grandmother whom has been dead for 12 years were in the car
with my mother, waiting! What does this mean? Please help.
Dear
Dreamer,If
the dream is literal, it suggests that your mother and other
relatives may be waiting on your to meet them. However, in all
likelihood the dream is metaphorical and suggests instead that
your mother (and other relatives) are waiting on you to do with
your life what you always planned to. In other words, the dream
may indicate that somehow your life has gotten off track and
you have postponed living the dreams you have had since being
a child. I hope that helps. If this is the case, let me recommend
that you consider taking the online version of
DISCOVERING YOUR MISSION IN LIFE,

Here's
my dream... I am a Native American, so from my perspectives
dreams are often taken literally. Lately, I have been having
a number of dreams about the deceased: my siblings, mother/father
and now my grandfather. I feel they are telling me something,
which I totally do not understand. I have been worried about
my health, particularly my heart. The other night my grandfather
and I were at an amusement park, and he asked me if I wanted
to go for a ride on the Ferris wheel, which really frightens
me. Thank you in advance; please help.
Dear
Dreamer,Part
of the interpretation is connected to what you associate with
your grandfather - especially in terms of his health and his
approach to life. For example, perhaps you would describe your
grandfather as an eternal optimist, or maybe someone who always
tried to have fun in life. Perhaps you would describe him as
someone who was extremely fearful himself, and was challenged
by his fears all of his life. In any event, whatever you associate
with your grandfather may be somehow connected to similar behavior
within yourself, and the dream may be suggesting that you need
to either overcome some of your fears and/or have more fun in
life. I hope that helps. –
Here's
my dream... My son recently lost his very best friend by suicide. My son cannot understand why it happened and is confused and angry. There was no note. He had a dream the other night that he was sitting on one end of the couch and his friend was sitting on the other end; his friend would only look at him out of the corner of his eye and kept smiling. My son kept telling him how messed up it was what he did. His friend then looked his way but not directly at him and said something but my son could not hear it, then he woke up. My son said he felt better when he woke up only because he got to see him again. He said it was so clear and in color, he could see exactly what he was wearing.
Dear
Dreamer,Please
tell your son that the Edgar Cayce material would suggest that
your son had a literal contact from his friend. Communication
and contact between the living and the deceased is actually
quite common in the dream state. The dream suggests that his
friend was certainly embarrassed by what he had done but was
also trying to communicate his "survival." Suggest that your
son read the book TESTIMONY OF LIGHT,
by Helen Greaves, so that he can see what his friend
might be experiencing right now, and how this type of communication
is possible. –
Here's
my dream... My 20-year-old son committed suicide 6 months ago. We had an argument same day and he was upset with me. In my prayers I keep asking him to tell me how he is and if he is angry with me. I had few short dreams: In one dream, I opened the front door, saw that he was sitting in driver seat of a brand new black car and had a nice smile while looking ahead. In another dream he was going to take me, my 16 years old daughter and 13 years old son to a place that he said is like paradise. Our plane ticket was confirmed but the plane did not have room for us, the 2nd plane was full also. My son was very upset and was arguing with the Captain. Please tell me what he was trying to tell me. Thank you.
Dear Dreamer,I think the dream
was suggesting that your son is still your son, that he has
been checking in on you from time to time, and that he is not
angry with you. In fact, the argument with the captain would
suggest that his personality was such that he argued when he
did not get his way, with anybody - whether it was you or the
"Captain" (a possible symbol of God). I would suggest that your
son is not angry and that he is over whatever transpired between
you. Let me recommend that your read the book Testimony
of Light, by Helen Greaves, so that you can read about
what your son may be experiencing at this time. –
Here's
my dream... PLEASE HELP! I keep having a recurring
dream about my deceased father and me. And in my dream he
tells me I won't miss him long and that he loves me and
that I will be with him soon. And I ask him what do you
mean dad? I got to raise my kids. And he replies you will
see soon - you will be with me. What does he mean about
that? I have communicated with my dad since he passed. What
worries me is that about a week after he died my daughter
looked at me and said papa said that you were going to die.
And I explained to her that papa died and he wasn't here
any more. She said no mommy he is sitting right there; can't
you see him? This is really freaking me out. I am daddy's
girl but I have 3 kids to raise - I am getting a little
scared.
Dear Dreamer, Although it is possible
to have foreknowledge of your own death, it is much more likely
that you are either going to have a "metaphorical" death - in
other words, your life is going to change - or that your father
is having difficulty passing completely to the other side. I
would recommend praying for him and yourself. I would also recommend
reading the book, THE PLACE WE CALL HOME,
by Robert Grant. There is also a slight possibility that
your father is going to experience a "death" in the spirit world
because he is about to reincarnate into the physical world.
If you find yourself pregnant, let me recommend that you read
the book BORN TO LIVE by Dr. Gladys McGarey.
I hope that helps. –
Here's
my dream... My husband has been dead for 6 years now.
Last night, I dreamt I was driving my vehicle on a road. I began
to hear an extremely intense, unbearable screeching noise. I
looked up and saw a van sliding down an extremely steep iced
over mountain road. The car then crashed into a tree and my
husband (who as I stated before is already deceased in real
life) flew out of the van landing face down in a creek. He was
wearing a tan jacket. No one seemed to pay any attention or
even care, except me. In this dream, I had no recollection of
the fact that he is already dead. The most intense feeling I
felt in the dream was an overwhelming sadness. The sound of
the van coming down the hill was unbearable. This dream affected
the mood of my whole day. I never ever remember my dreams. This
is only the third time since his death that I have remembered
dreaming of him. This dream has literally made my soul ache.
I wish I understood the significance of this dream. I find it
to be an oddity to dream of watching someone die who in reality
is already dead and died of cancer. What does this mean? Please
help me understand this vividly intense nightmare.
Dear Dreamer, In
brief, the dream is a symbolic representation of how your life
has changed since your husband's death. Essentially, the dream
centers on the theme that no one around you really understand
how much your life was and still continues to be impacted by
this event. Note how in the dream your feeling was essentially,
"No one seemed to pay any attention or even care, except me."
In other words, everyone else has gotten on with their lives
and yet you continue to be affected by this experience. The
van sliding down the hill is essentially symbolic of your life
(with your husband) sliding out of control. Overall, I think
the dream has occurred because you may be going through some
process of introspection in terms of "Now what do I do with
the rest of my life?" If this is the case, let me suggest that
you consider looking into our online course,
"Discovering Your Mission in Life," which you can find
at this link:http://www.edgarcayce.org/free_activities.asp.

Here's
my dream... I have looked everywhere for the meaning
of my dream. Although I have found meanings of dreams about
graves this particular dream is not analyzed. I lost a sister
a year and a half ago. My dream is that she is coming up out
of her grave trying to pull me in with her. Can you tell me
what this means? It has me really bothered.
Dear Dreamer, If
the experience of your sister's death has been traumatic for
you and your family, one interpretation is that at times it
"pulls you down" or even causes you to contemplate death. In
other words, her death "killed" some aspect of yourself. Another
interpretation may be that the dream is symbolically pointing
out that your sister is trying to reach out or communicate to
you from the grave - a possibility that is apparently causing
you much fear. Let me recommend that you consider reading the
book Testimony of Light, by Helen Greaves.
I think it will be very helpful t to you at this time. –
Here's
my dream... I dreamed that my son died and I was talking
to his spirit but I could not get to him. Then when I woke up
my bathroom light, which I keep on at night just flickered out.
When I awoke I was very distraught and crying uncontrollably.
I felt every emotion that I felt in my dream. It felt so real.
It did not feel like a dream. Please help interpret this nightmare.
Dear Dreamer, Although it is possible
to have a precognitive literal dream about someone's passing,
it is more likely that the dream is a "metaphor" for something
occurring in you and your son's relationship at the present
time. Depending on his age and current situation, for example,
maybe you have come to the realization that you can no longer
protect him from life. Another option would be your own realization
that he is no longer a child - your "baby" - and the metaphor
is simply that the child you once knew (and that once needed
you as his mother) has "died."

Here's
my dream... I recently had a dream of my grandfather that has passed away I saw him and he came up to me. He said, "I'm sorry sweetheart but I have to tell you're going to die of an infection and it's going to go to your head." I remember telling him I cant my baby's only 2 weeks old I want to see him grow up. Then the dream switched to me being in a doctor's office and the doctor saying well we don't know what stage it is. This dream really bothered me I woke up crying, I'm not sick that I know of and I'm only 23. Do you think it means I'm going to die soon!!! Please help me.
Dear Dreamer, You're giving the dream a literal interpretation, when a metaphorical one is much more likely. Symbolically, an infection in your head can correspond to something that is really irritating you, bothering you, or making you angry. Your emotion of being bothered as you woke up could simply be a reflection of the same level of irritation that you are experiencing around you. The fact that it is in your head may also suggest that this is something you're thinking about but not necessarily communicating to the person causing the problem. I hope that helps.

Here's
my dream... I am submitting a dream that my boyfriend
had. He dreamed I died from getting stabbed to death. We were
at this park that we'd been to before. It was dark and I was
standing on a swing and he was holding me while we kissed. He
said a man in with a brown paper mask stabbed me and ran away.
He said I fell to the ground and was dead. He then woke up and
it freaked him out pretty bad. This is all the information he
gave me and I need help understanding it. Thanks.
Dear Dreamer, It is important
to keep in mind that we do not generally dream FOR other people.
Although it might be possible to dream about someone's death,
it is much more likely that in the dream you symbolize your
boyfriend's relationship with you and the dream is indicating
the instability of that relationship. The mask man could be
symbolic of something he hasn't wanted to face or hasn't wanted
to reveal to you, or that you haven't wanted to reveal to him.
With this in mind, it might be good to have a conversation about
each of your plans for the future of this relationship. Good
luck to you. –
Here's
my dream... I need to know if this dream is telling
me that I am dying, I've been having symptoms of something serious.
My dream is of my grandmother who passed away almost eight years
ago. We are sitting in a room, she is packing her bags; she
says she's going back to Florida (where we all lived). I then
tell her if you go then I want to go with you. She tells me
it's fine, that I can come. The dream was very vivid and colorful.
Does this mean I will join her?
Dear Dreamer, First
of all, if you are having "symptoms of something serious" you
need to see a doctor immediately. Even the most serious health
issues can be helped if they are caught in time. GO TO SEE A
DOCTOR IMMEDIATELY. That said, dreams of individuals can often
be associated with whatever we think about that individual -
in other words, what that person symbolizes. Therefore, because
you have been thinking about health challenges, one possibility
suggested by the dream is that you may have an early version
of whatever your grandmother had when she was in Florida. A
metaphorical possibility would suggest that you are having this
health challenge as a means to help you get back to your roots.
–
Here's my dream...
My mother died at the age of 44. I
have had a hard time adjusting to her death because it happened
without warning. She was a healthy woman with a zeal for
life. I dream of her often and it takes place at the house
where my brother found her. Just recently I have been able
to see her face in my dreams. I do recall one dream where
she was sitting on a bench. The location was slightly dim
with an old street light beside the bench. I was on a train
of some type and I saw a woman with long pretty hair and
a white gown sitting on the bench. As the train started
to move the lady began looking at the train and I started
staring harder at the woman. Then, I saw her face and man
did she look younger and beautiful. She began to wave at
me and then the dream was over. Several dreams in which
I have of her I am not allowed to hug her. I want to hug
her; however, she explains to me that she can't. I'll ask
her to stay and she tells me that she can't. What are these
dreams trying to tell me?
Dear Dreamer, The Edgar Cayce
material states that it is quite common for our loved ones
who have died to be able to communicate with us in the dream
state. With this in mind, I think that real communication
was occurring between yourself and your mother. Because
your mother is in an altered state of consciousness and
because you are still bounded by the limitations of a physical
body, sometimes maintaining that communication is challenging.
In addition, you cannot touch her because the vibration
of where she is touching the vibration of where you are
would cause something like an electric shock. [A similar
happening occurred in the Bible when Mary Magdalene saw
the resurrected Jesus and he told her, "Touch me not."]
Let me suggest that you read the book TESTIMONY
OF LIGHT by Helen Greaves, which will explain how
this kind of communication is even possible. –
Here's my dream
- In my dream, I am preparing food for me and my husband to be brought to our bedroom. While preparing it, I saw him cuddling/smooching a woman in our bed. Out of shame, I just told them "alright, I will just stay outside of the room," then I brought our food outside the room. While doing it, I saw them covering themselves by a blanket and having sex. I asked myself, "Why did he have sex with her and not with me?" I felt disappointed, confused and hurt. In the next scene, I was washing clothes when my husband saw me. He walked towards me. I looked at the bed he shared with that woman. I saw only the feet of the woman and the feet of a child (both thin and black as if malnourished) both bodies were still lying on the bed covered by a blanket. He did not take a look at the woman. While walking towards my direction, I saw pain in my husband's eyes. He just kept on looking at me until he reached a room that looks like a bathroom. His eyes were telling how sad he was and how painful he felt. Then he closed the door of the bathroom leaving a small opening so that he could still take a glimpse of me. Then I woke up. As a background, my husband died of heart attack last Oct. 1, 2004 but before he died there are rumors that he had a short-lived affair with our housekeeper. Is my husband confessing me the truth by way of this dream? –
Dear Dreamer, Yes, it is possible that your husband was trying to show you what happened and why. If this is the case, the young child in the bed (and the fact that both the child and the woman appeared malnourished) suggests that the affair was very "young" in duration and that your husband did not put a lot of energy or thought into the affair. It also suggests that he felt guilty and perhaps shamed about what he had done. The dream may also suggest that the affair occurred because your husband felt like you had other priorities besides your relationship. In any event, both prayer and forgiveness are probably in order. –
Here's my dream
- I dreamed that
my son, who was murdered in January of this year, was walking toward
my apartment door. He was singing a beautiful love ballad loudly and
off-key, as he often did while living. Although I knew in my dream that
he was deceased, I was excited to hear him approaching. I remember saying
in my dream, "It can't be him, he's dead, maybe he really isn't dead"!
I was standing in front of my kitchen sink waiting anxiously, with a
big smile on my face, for him to enter my apartment. I was so happy
to hear his voice. I remember saying "how is he going to open the door,
it's locked?" I continued to wait in anticipation as he came closer
and closer to my door. As he approached the front of my door his voice
changed. He began to sing beautifully. He sang so sincerely. I was so
excited. It seems he paused before opening the door. As he opened the
door he continued to sing. He was wearing a baseball cap. The cap covered
his eyes. He never looked at me. He was carrying an empty pale blue
laundry basket. He walked directly toward my dryer, never once looking
at me. He reached to open the dryer. Unfortunately, I awoke from my
telephone ringing.
Dear
Dreamer,
According
to Edgar Cayce, it is quite common for us to have real experiences of
communication with our loved ones who are deceased while in the dream
state. You son was simply trying to communicate with you in the way
that you could best understand him - it was not just a dream, it was
a real experience. If you would like to see additional examples of this
kind of experience, let me recommend reading the dream archives, as
well as two books: Testimony of Light, by Helen
Greaves, and Return from Tomorrow, by George
Ritchie. –
Here's my dream
- I
am a 14-year-old girl, and my Uncle committed suicide about a month
ago. He played a huge part in my life and was the most important person
on earth to me. Last night I dreamt that he contacted me through the
phone. I knew he was dead and all I remember is that I said "Is this..."
and he said "yes" he told me a very important message but I can't
remember what it was now. I was for some reason afraid to say his
name because I thought he might go away. I could not see his face
but his voice was very clear to me and I wondered if he actually contacted
me or if I was just thinking about him so perhaps I just had this
odd dream. I have been having a couple of dreams lately where I contact
people that I know well that are no longer living and we both know
that they are dead and that its only a dream but I am very sure (in
the dream) that I am communicating with them. The first dream I could
see the person as I last remembered them but with my Uncle I could
only talk to him through the phone. Please Help I am very confused.
Dear Dreamer,
Yes, the
Edgar Cayce information would say that you have had real communication
with your deceased loved ones. You can find additional examples of this
in the archives section. Let me recommend that you read the book Testimony
of Light, by Helen Greaves, to give you an examination of what
your Uncle may be experiencing, as well as further examples of this
type of communication. In addition to communicating with your Uncle
through dreams, you can also communicate though prayer - simply send
him your prayers and your thoughts. May God bless you at this time. –
Here's my dream
- My
grandmother passed away four weeks ago. I keep having this reoccurring
dream about her. We are at her funeral, and I know this sounds terrible
and scary, but in the dream she is lying there and suddenly rolls
over and moves. The funeral home assures us this sometimes happens
and repositions her. In real life, my mom and her siblings are in
much turmoil, fighting etc. I was very close to my grandmother, grew
up under the same roof. Could this have any relation to those things
and is she trying to communicate with me. Please help.
Dear Dreamer,
Haven't
you ever heard the saying that such and such would make so and so
"roll over in her grave?" I think the dreams are trying to show you
how disappointed your grandmother would be in how her children are
behaving. In fact, it is possible that she is so unsettled by their
fighting that she is having a hard time making her own transition.
Maybe you can encourage everyone in your family to ask themselves,
"What would grandmother want us to do?" Please see the dream archives
for recommended reading and additional dreams about communication
with the deceased. –
Here's my dream
- I am hoping
you will take the time to review and answer my inquiry because I am
thoroughly confused. A couple of weeks ago, a dear friend of mine
passed away in a car accident. I found out just hours before I was
to fly to Florida to be with my family. Since I was in a different
state, I could not attend his wake or his funeral. This ate me up
inside. Since then I have been thinking of him constantly and am in
serious need of closure. I have visited the cemetery but could not
locate his site because it has happened so recently. Two nights ago
I had a dream that he was sitting alongside of me. I knew I was dreaming
while I was dreaming this. He sat there looking at me and continuously
smiling. I began calling his name. I was reaching out for him because
I was trying to hug him, and although he was sitting next to me, I
could not reach him. The more I noticed I could not reach him, the
louder my screams grew. His smile continued. I became more frantic
as I was trying to reach him, and with a smile he looked at me and
said "It's alright...It's okay." After this, he began to fade away
and I slowly started awaking. Eventually he just disappeared, and
I woke up with a jolt. I guess my question is: Is it possible that
this is my guilt eating at me for not being able to be there for his
wake/funeral, or my need for closure...or could it be him letting
me know that I should not worry - that he is okay? Please respond,
as I have never been so shaken and confused in my life.
Dear Dreamer,
Quite simply,
the Edgar Cayce material would state that your friend was literally
communicating to you and trying to reassure you that: 1) you have nothing
to feel guilty about; and 2) although he is deceased, he is still very
conscious of himself and his loved ones. If you would like to read more
examples of this type of communication (as well as obtain a couple of
recommended books to read about this phenomenon), please see the dream
archives. –
Here's my dream
- I am a 35-year-old
female in medical school that has recently become very interested
in holistic medicine. My parents have visited the A.R.E. and told
me to write in and ask about a dream I have been having for years.
My parents forbade my first love at 15. This was a very turbulent
time in my life. The relationship was so forbidden that my parents
moved me to another state. Several years after that move, I heard
that my first love had killed himself. Although I am happily married
for a number of years now, I constantly have dreams where my first
love is present (several times a week) and this has been going on
for years.
Dear Dreamer,
If the dream
is literally, it suggests that your deceased boyfriend is acting as
a kind of "guardian angel" influence in your life - very much aware
of your activities and very much wanting only the best for you. In other
words, he may remain around you in spirit. If the dream is more metaphorical,
it suggests that the "dream relationship" you once imagined having with
your deceased boyfriend has actually manifested in terms of your relationship
with your husband. In other words, you got what you once thought you
wanted with your present husband. In addition, elements of both could
also be true. Finally, because of your interest in holism, you may be
interested in the work of medical pioneer Gladys
T. McGarey, who was featured on the cover of the September/October
2004 issue of Venture Inward magazine. You could get a copy of
the article by contacting A.R.E.'s customer service department: 1-800-333-4499.

Here's my dream
- My mom passed
away 4 months ago. She had Alzheimer's. A month before she died, she
told me that she thought she was going to die soon. She looked very
sad when she said that and also said that she did not want to die.
My father, brother and myself are struggling with sadness. I have
had a number of dreams. The last dream she was sitting in a room,
her hair was done, she looked beautiful; she had a glow around her.
I asked her how she was and she smiled. That was it. Was she trying
to communicate with me?
Dear Dreamer,
She was definitely trying to communicate the fact that she is doing
well and not to worry about her. More examples of this type of communication
are in the archives section for you to see. I would also recommend
reading the book, Testimony of Light, by Helen
Greaves, so that you can see what kind of experiences you mother
may be going through at this point in time. –
Here's my dream
- Last
night, I had a dream that my best friend had been killed in a car
accident. It was really upsetting, as this is one of her fears of
dying and I woke up crying. Apparently last week her sister had a
dream that she was murdered. Is there any connection in these dreams
as it has worried me now and I can't stop thinking about her?
Dear Dreamer,
Since both
of you had similar dream, in all likelihood the dreams are simply a symbolic
representation of a change in your friend's life that is going to effect
you. Because a car is often symbolic of a life's direction, it could suggest
that your friend's current direction is coming to an abrupt end - e.g.
she is going to move, go to a different school, etc., causing you to experience
somewhat of a "death" n terms of your old relationship. The same could
be true for her sister's dream - a move might impact their relationship.
Another possibility is that whatever she most symbolizes to each of you
is coming to an end. For example, if she symbolizes "someone who just
got a new job," then it could suggest that your job is about to come to
an end. –
Here's my dream
- I
had a dream last night that I cannot figure out and has me disturbed.
I dreamt that I was coming out of grocery store and my dad was outside
the store and he had someone tied to his leg and had a gun aimed at
him. Someone had my mother up against the wall and was beating her
with a shovel. I was screaming to my Dad to help her and to make the
person stop and he wouldn't help her and he was going to shoot the
person that was tied to his leg. I started to run away and he shot
me in the back and then I woke up. This was very upsetting since my
Dad die last October. Please help me make sense of this dream. I have
submitted one before, but did not have a response.
Dear Dreamer,
One possibility suggested by the dream is that your father's death left your mother in a very challenging emotional and/or financial state. The fact that something was tied to your dad's leg could suggest that the problem actually began before his death (e.g. drain of finances, emotional sadness, etc.), but it is only know since his burial (perhaps symbolized by the shovel) that your mother is having to face the situation straight on. If this is the case, the dream indicates that this is not a situation that you can just ignore or let pass by - you probably need to figure out how various family members can help your mother. –
Here's my dream
- I have looked
everywhere to see if someone has had a dream like mine, and no luck.
Please help. Three weeks ago I had a dream that my father came and
took me out of my body and brought me to his state of mind. It was
dark but I felt at peace. And I had asked him if this was heaven.
My father was living at the time of this dream, but battling brain
cancer. One week later he passed away. When I awoke from this dream
I had felt like I really had left my body. Can you help?
Dear Dreamer,
In all likelihood, you did leave your body (in consciousness) and
your father came and took you on a "real tour" of what was
occurring in his consciousness. So yes, you really communicated with
your dying father, and yes you really had an experience out of your
body. Let me recommend two books to you: Return
from Tomorrow, by George Ritchie, which describes a young man's
experience out of his body, and Testimony of
Light, which describes what happens to an individual when he
or she dies. I think you would find both books very helpful. –
Here's my dream
- The dream
I have is bothering me very badly. I keep having dreams about my husband
who committed suicide 15 months ago. In the dream I am frantically
searching for him. I am constantly calling his parents and family.
They tell me he is alive and he does not want to see me. I get little
messages indirectly that tells me he loves me and misses me. I have
a strong sense in the dream that he does want to come home to me.
However, he never does. One dream in particular, I went to one of
his family's funerals certain that he would show up there. When I
got there no one would speak to me. However, they told my cousin that
he was there and has no intention of coming home.
Dear Dreamer,
Although the dream has a number of insinuations about your relationship
with your husband's family, the dream seems to suggest that your husband
wishes he had not killed himself, wishes he could come home to you,
and realizes he cannot. I would recommend reading the book, Testimony
of Light, by Helen Graves. –
Here's my dream
- I have submitted
this dream before. I know you probably get tons of submissions but
if you can help me I would really appreciate it. A while ago, I had
a dream that I was dead and was at my own funeral. There were flowers
everywhere and the room had dark wood floors. I saw all of my relatives
there crying and I realized that I only had three hours before I had
to go to the afterlife. I saw my friend Andy, and realized I could
talk to him, but only him. The next day, he told me he had had a dream
about me, and described the exact same dream in reverse: he was dead
and could only talk to me! What does this mean? It's driving me crazy!
Dear Dreamer,
Dreams of death are often symbolic of the end of something. They can also indicate that the "image" that the dreamer had of self, or the image that others had of the dreamer is no longer valid (e.g. the person they thought they knew is "dead"). In terms of why you and your friend had the same dream the same night, the Edgar Cayce material suggests that it is possible to "meet" individuals in consciousness in the dream state. With this in mind, the dream might indicate that you and your friend are going through similar issues with family members, and perhaps those issues are about both them and you accepting you for choices, decisions, or a lifestyle that had not been anticipated. –
Here's my dream
- My 3-year-old
daughter has been having dreams about my father who has passed away
almost 10 years ago. She will tell me that her Grandpa says "hi" to
me. In her dreams, he will take her places and give her certain foods
and she will remember them. One time, I introduced a new candy to
her and she had told me, her Grandpa had already given it to her in
her dream. She continues to eat the candy and says it's the same thing
she had in her dreams. She has dreams of him more and more frequent
now. Please tell me what this means and any suggestions on how to
deal with my daughter.
Dear Dreamer,
Actually,
there is nothing to "deal" with. Your daughter is having real experiences
of communication with your deceased father. The Edgar Cayce material
indicates that our deceased loved ones maintain an interest in us and
our lives even after they have passed away. In addition, Cayce stated
that real communication between the living and the deceased in possible
while dreaming because the barriers of consciousness have been set aside.
Let assure you that there is nothing dangerous or harmful about your
daughter's experiences. Accept them, and you might even tell her that
the next time she dreams about Grandpa to tell him that you send your
love. If you would like to know more about what happens when we die
and how communication with the living is possible, I would recommend
Testimony of Light, by Helen Greaves, or
any of the books by James Van Praagh. –
Here's my dream
- I have had
several dreams that my mom who died in August is still alive and despises
me. I loved my mother and I know she loved me and the dreams are breaking
my heart. Please help me.
Dear Dreamer,
You are probably trying to give the dream a literal
interpretation when, in fact, it should have a metaphorical one. From
a metaphorical perspective, your mother would probably symbolize your
own higher self or your own internal authority figure. With this in
mind, the dream may suggest that either you have done something or
have considered doing something that your mother (as well as your
own internal authority figure) wouldn't approve of, or it may suggests
that you tend to be extremely critical of yourself and may need to
work on improving your own self-esteem. –
Here's my dream
- I felt an
urgency to have a family reunion with both my husbands and mine sides
of the family as a month ago his brother died fast and unexpectedly,
and I realized we needed to get the living all together. The next
night without knowing what I was thinking, my husband's daughter told
me she had a dream of a family reunion and my husband and I were on
either side of Bob (now just deceased) and we were having a good time
talking to him when he left our side to go sit down in a chair, closed
his eyes and died. Then her uncle on her mother's side did the same
exact thing as Bob. He is already deceased also. Bob had died of a
massive heart attack, after never having any sign of problems. My
daughter told me she was worried about her dad (my husband dying)
because he has had 2 heart attacks already. I feel that my husband
is not the one who is next to die but instead that we need to get
all the relatives together and Bob is confirming the necessity of
living and rekindling family ties. Bob is guiding us to know that
families are forever, and he will be there also. Is this what you
think or do you think my husband will be the next to die of a heart
attack and this is the warning.
Dear Dreamer,
What appears to be most important is the necessity of
bringing all of the family together not only to celebrate the living
but also to celebrate the lives of those who have gone before. I think
that the dream could be interpreted that there is "death" visiting
your family, but I think the central point is about pulling together
the reunion you've been thinking about. In all likelihood, it appears
that Bob will even attend the get together in spirit. –
Here's my dream
- I have been
having dreams that my brother committed suicide. Is it possible that
this is a wake up call that my brother is depressed? As background
information, our dad committed suicide so these dreams have scared
me.
Dear Dreamer,
Especially
because of the family history, you need to make certain that your brother
is seeking help if he is depressed. It could be something as simple
as a chemical imbalance, which could be treated with medication. So
first of all, make certain he is getting any help that he needs. That
said, the dream also has additional possibilities. In addition to suggesting
that your brother is depressed, another possibility could be that the
two of you have been having problems in your relationship with one another
that is effectively "killing" the relationship. Another possibility
is that you might be a little depressed and have been having challenges
dealing with your own family responsibilities. Keep in mind that all
dreams can have more than one meaning. Just to be on the safe side,
however, check in with your brother and see how he is doing. –
Here's my dream
- In
real life my brother was murdered by his wife on July 7,2004. It was
a Wednesday. Last Wednesday night I had a dream that my phone rang
and I answered it. It was my brother. I told him he needed to come
home now and he said he couldn't that he had been shot and had been
away to heal. He asked me how our Mom was doing and I told him that
all of us are having a very hard time dealing with his death and that
we all love him and miss him dearly. I told him again that he needed
to come home where he belongs and he said that he couldn't but that
he loves me and to tell the rest of the family that he loves them
and misses them also and that he will be talking to me again sometime.
I met my Mom for breakfast on the Friday following my dream and I
told her that I wanted to tell her about a dream I had the previous
Wednesday night, she said that she also had a dream that night. Her
dream was that her phone was ringing also and she didn't make it in
time to answer it but that she heard my brother's voice on the answering
machine, but when she went to hit the replay button she accidentally
hit the delete button instead. Now, in her dream my brother called
her but she didn't get to talk to him and in my dream he called me
also and I did talk to him. Both dreams were phone calls and in my
dream I very clearly knew it was my brother. We have always been very
close. He was just 30 when he was murdered. The day he died I was
at work and I got a excruciating headache, I hardly ever get headaches.
The pain was so intense and it came from the back of my head and radiated
to the front. I remember looking at the clock to see how long it was
before break - the clock said 8:12 am. That night I found out about
my brother being killed. I didn't know until 3 days later that his
wife had shot him in the back of the head and they estimated the time
of the shooting to be around 8:17 that morning. I hope you can put
some light on what I have experienced since his death.
Dear Dreamer,
According
to Edgar Cayce, when we dream about a loved one who is deceased real communication
can take place. Your dream was a real event - your brother was talking
to you. Since we all know that a phone is a symbol for communication,
your subconscious mind simply pulled together the necessary elements to
make real communication happen. Apparently your brother also tried to
communicate with your mother the very same night. The headache was simply
tied into your psychic connection. Let me recommend a couple of books
that will explain how this communication takes place and what your brother
may be experiencing right now: Testimony of Light, by Helen Greaves, and
The Place We Call Home, by Robert Grant. Rest assured that your brother
was simply trying to reassure you and, in all likelihood, he will try
to connect with you again. May God bless you all at this time. –
Here's my dream
- I need your
help very badly. I have been told by many people that I am what is
called "a seer." I have the deceased come to me in dreams and tell
me or show me things - sometimes I am able to figure them out and
others not. I need to know if they are really coming to me or not?
In one of the many examples, I was sleeping and one of my 4 children
(I couldn't tell which one) was by the laundry room door in the kitchen
and woke me. I heard my child say that this little girl was there
and she stunk and was dirty and needed to leave. I got out of bed
thinking my child was being mean to a guest of one of my other children.
I went to the laundry room door and saw that this little girl was
dead. I told my child to go play that I would handle this. I told
the dead child, "I am sorry honey but you do not belong here - it
is going to be okay; I am taking you back where you came from. I guided
her by her shoulders back through the laundry room door to the back
door of the house, which in real life we have covered with deadbolts
and such. The door was cracked open only being held shut by the chain
lock and the little dead girl's dead mother was on the outside of
the door scolding her - telling her to come on and that she had told
her we would not understand. I told the mother it was okay and that
I did not mind but I was very sad and angry with myself for not asking
what I could do to help before just leading her out of the door. I
woke up in real life feeling the same way. Was she real? How can I
get her to come back and how can I help? This really bothers me.
Dear Dreamer,
In
all likelihood you had an out of body experience and saw a deceased
child and her mother. The best "help" you can provide for someone
in that experience is to tell the individual(s) to: "Look for the
light," to reassure them that someone will come help them, and to
explain that they are deceased and it is time to move on. You can
also help by praying for the individuals. Keep in mind that the angelic
realms are trying to help from the other side, as well. I do not think
you did anything wrong - in all likelihood, the woman and her child
were looking for help but their frame of mind was blocking the natural
progression to the afterlife. I would recommend a couple of books
for you to read: "Testimony of Light", by Helen Greaves,
and"Return from Tomorrow", by George Ritchie. –
Here's my dream
- It's not my
dream but I want to know what the dream means because I'm kind of
afraid. The dream was that my girlfriend saw herself in a coffin at
her funeral while her family cried over her body and her deceased
grandmother and close friend were holding out their hands out to her.
What does that mean?
Dear Dreamer,
Although literally interpreting the dream might make
an individual ponder the possibility of death, a much more likely
interpretation is a metaphorical one. Since it is your friend's dream,
from a metaphorical perspective it suggests that she may have done
something that would so upset her family that (she might say) "I'd
rather be dead then let my parents know about ___________," or "If
they knew about this it would kill them." In other she may have done
something that she knows her family wouldn't approve of. The death
she is dreaming of is the death of the "little girl" the family still
thinks of when they think of her. –
