Mystics claim that the world of our dreams can be a connection to other worlds, inaccessible to our waking consciousness, so it is not a coincidence that since ancient times, it was believed that dreams of dead people are an important sign that must not be ignored.

The dead come to our dreams with a message, advice or warning that should be understood in order to avoid unnecessary troubles and keep ourselves from making mistakes, according to mystics.

Psychologists believe that dreams about relatives or friends who have passed away are just a manifestation of depression or feelings of guilt towards them.

However, let’s take a closer look at the mystical point of view and try to understand what messages can be carried by people who are now alive only in our memories and can talk to us only through our dreams.

Modern dream books often do not pay enough attention to many important nuances: what the dead people look like in our dreams – dead in the grave, alive and happy, or they come to life right before our eyes, or maybe we just do not remember in our dream that this person passed away long ago.

Interpretations of dreams about deceased people

It is commonly assumed that the dream of a dead person (talking to him, listening to his advice, and doing what he tells) is a sign of unexpected news or changes in life. Christian dream interpretation books sometimes explain that we have such kind of dreams when the soul of our deceased relative or friend has not found peace yet, and advise to hold additional ceremonies at the funeral and repose of the deceased (for example, if in the dream the deceased asks for water).

Pagan interpretations of dreams that have come down to us recommend to implicitly obey everything that the dead person asks for, in order to avoid the anger of the gods. And while dreaming dead people may be scary, sometimes it can be a good omen.

In case if in your dream a dead person comes back to life, it may mean that something lost will soon return (money, a thing, or even social status).

An English dream book interprets the dream of dead people as a sign of good events in the family, such as a wedding or the birth of a child or anything happy and prosperous. Another dream book says that seeing a dead relative in a dream before the wedding is a warning against the union. This dream indicates the unhappy marriage and warns that the children born in it will be sick and weak.

What about the dreams of a deceased relative?

At this point, there is no definitive interpretation, and you should always take into account many confounding factors. But most interpretations concerning dead relatives (especially parents) appearing in a dream indicate a warning of trouble.

Sometimes the dreams in which a sleeping person communicates with their deceased parents, help find inner peace, confidence, and even affect the success in business and the well-being of the family.

It is also believed that it is impossible to influence the dreams in which we see our dead loved ones. Mystics claim that even if you manage to do it, it is absolutely useless, since it is not us who call them in, it is them who decide to come to us.

    My mum passed away in May last year and I had a dream that she was sat up in bed reading a newspaper which she never did when she was alive and after 5 – 10 seconds she puts the paper down onto her lap and turns her head to look at me but there is no facial expression she just stares at me for a few more seconds then I woke up. I remember feeling happy to see her but then I realise she died then I feel confused I’m seeing her alive. Does this mean anything?

    The dreams, tend to associate with material life, when in fact your energy (spirit) that never rests, how many times you fly to your dreams, or were in places that you do not understand, most of the time we are out of matter, and we do not realize, so we call dreams, but what we call dreams shows us a little of what is to stop life as we know forever, many of these times the person does not realize that already died, and sometimes I see someone there trying to help us, we know it is hard to understand life after the subject. Recommendation, in the case of a loved being say, you’re okay, and send it to the light, and if an attack by dark forces, as you have nothing to do with the dark, tell them that you belong to light. In this life and the next stay in the light. Ramon.

    I had a dream about an old high school friend who passed away 2 years ago. This may sound weird but I then dated his younger brother about a year ago. HE WAS THE PERFECT GUY. I wasn’t used to getting treated so well and unfortunately broke things off after a month. I miss that relationship dearly. I think about him all the time and how I would do anything to have it all back. I reached out to him before Christmas and we hung out but I can tell I hurt him and things aren’t the same. I’m going to keep trying because I know how great we were together. But anyway, back to my dream… I can’t say I think about Jake (the deceased) as much as I think about his brother (my ex). But for some reason last night I had a weird dream. I was with my dad, brother, and best friend, we were house hunting for some odd reason. And while everyone was talking to the realtor. I wondered upstairs and around the hall was Jake! I was so excited/shocked to see him. I ran over.. We exchanged a few words. And then he went into another room. I followed quickly behind him. He was smiling like crazy which was something everyone loved about Jake. Jake took my hands and said “Sylvia I just want you to know that everything is going to be alright, don’t worry.” And I was confused on why he was saying such a thing. I asked where this was coming from and he just simply smiled and disappeared. I then started to yell for him.. He was gone. I began to cry. That’s all I can remember from my dream. I don’t have anything crazy going on in my life right now so I’m not sure if he was warning me about my future, if he was signaling something about me and his brothers relationship, or what!?
    Any advice is welcomed! I usually don’t remember much about my dreams but this has been on my mind all day.

    I had a dream that my old family friend who died around 10 years ago. She said to me that I had a day left to say goodbye to my loved ones then I was going to go with her. She looked normal like what I can remember she does when I was around 11.
    What does this mean ????

  7. Maddy

    My dad who passed away almost three years ago, said “I’ll see you soon.” he does this in every dream and scares me so bad.

    1. Donna

      Interesting….I recently dreamt of my aunt and uncle. My uncle passed 2 years ago and my aunt passed 3 months ago.
      I wasn’t particularly close to either one of them so when they appeared in my dream I was both confused and excited. My uncle passed from cancer and my aunt from Alzheimer’s I want to say, but am not really sure. In my dream however they were both HAPPY.
      We were at a Relay for Life event and waiting for the closing ceremonies when my uncle took a seat. My aunt came up and had no where to sit when my uncle told her to sit on his lap. They were both smiling and happy.
      I’ve also had dreams of both my parents, my dad usually talks to me but mom has only done so once or twice. Mom’s been gone almost 19 years and dad 13. Yet both are always smiling. I’ve also dreamt of ex boyfriends who have passed. In one Johnny is playing baseball and is probably about 13 years old smiling like he always did.
      In the other George is still my standby boyfriend and happy when ever I call him. Both are still young.
      Someone please tell me what all these drwams mean and that I’m not CRAZY

      1. KIARA

        I had a aunt and uncle who passed and I experience the same dreams.

      2. C girl

        To Donna No you are not crazy. For me when I dream of dead relatives. Someone in the family gets married. So look close in the dreams. Who else is there that is still alive and not married.it just might be you.

  8. SandiJ

    In my opinion, God has allowed me to see my parents, many times. I’ve been Blessed to see my mom & sister along with other relatives who have passed. We have hugged and I asked questions, why. It was through thought-processes and not actually speaking. Four relatives came to me in my dreams. It was beautiful to see them again. My dreams are very vivid and in color. I keep a “dream book”, next to my night stand to record everything before I forget the events. Its a wonderful thing to analyze and see them again. Thanks for your interpretation of what it may be as well.

    I’ve had dreams of my loved ones, most were so silly.Sometimes they don’t act like they did when they were alive,& that’s odd.what’s strange is when a dream feels real & makes me feel weird for 1 or 2 days…hard to shake off.

  10. Dorotea Pedroza

    Last night I had this dream even when not thinking about my decease Mother and stp-father..i dreamed that we part of the family was in a gathering and all of a sudden my mom n stpdad appear,and in a moment my stpdad had tooken my mom to the store n when he got back he was by himself,And we ask where was our mom n he answered “she got away from me” n we did not believe him,we TLD him that he did something to her,cuz of my mom dementia, He said no he didn’t do anything to her, that she walked away n he was unable to find her..And I was the one taking liberty to go n find our mother, but the thing was I nvr did.. So I came back n i TLD my stpdad if he done anything to her I was going to kill him..and where that I would see my stpdad I juz wanted to hit him,when he tried to hug me,I pull away.. So I figure what does it mean when a person dreams about two dead ppl??

  11. Jodie

    So strange less than 10days ago my step mother passed. We didnt get along really, and had not spoke for years before she died. Earlier tonight I drifted of into a very vivid dream. I dreamt there was a knock at the door of the house where i live now! (My house where my step mother has never been too!) and although i never answered the door i was intending too, when one of my step sisters walked in but she was kind of a blur i just knew/felt it was her. and straight after her i saw clearly and vivid as day! my stepmother follow her in. Which was a total suprise! in the dream i confronted her and asked “what are you doing here? Your dead”.. to which she replyed “no i am not i am here” i wasnt really afraid in the dream but felt aware and a sence of that this it? Whatever was going onwasnt real.. so i asked again “how is this? When you are dead!” to which she replyed again, “i am not it was a trick” i told her again no you have passed you shouldnt be here..suddenly i awoke and grabbed my fone it was exactly 12am Strange! So settling down again to go to sleep i was just thinking 2 myself did you come 2 say good by? and then all of a sudden my laptop instantly turned its self on when the lid was closed! It flashed and began playing sound it said “I think it is definitely a demonic presence what we have here????” Scared to death and shocked I picked the laptop up open the lid I started tapping the buttons to to make the sound stop coming out coincidentally around 9:30 before I went to sleep I was watching an episode of A Haunting and I had switched the laptop off halfway through the episode in order to go to sleep. so for the laptop to turn it’s self on Midway through the program it was really strange does anyone know what this might mean???

    1. Alvia Dixon

      I think it was a sign just to let u know she was there.

  12. Mae

    I had a dream last night..in my dream I knew my dad was there he has been gone for 19 years and he was going to visit my cousin who is gravelly ill with cancer. Then I was in a car with another cousin who has past away and he was drinking and we were going to visit my sick cousin to.when we got there my cousin wasn’t sick any more he was well and standing in the kitchen with a Alabama coat on and he told me my dad had just been there to see him.

  13. Kristin Rodriguez

    My father passed away 5 years this year & I have seen him a few times in my dreams. Sometimes he talks to me, sometimes he does not. Recently, the last two dreams I have had with him, I do not physically see him, but he comes up in my caller ID on my cell phone and tells me that he is not dead and that he just needed to get away for awhile. What does this mean? I mean, the only thing I can think of is that maybe I miss him and wish he really wasn’t gone? But I have had other dreams (nothing to do with my dad) come true. I mean, I’m sure this is impossible, but, is he trying to tell me something?

    So confused.

  14. johnsmith

    Boy did I have a spiritual dream last night. More visits from relatives. This time it was someone from Daddy’s side. An old man who was slim and looked tall but wasn’t as tall as Daddy but taller than his Daddy. He had eyes so blue looked like the ocean. He walked up to me as I was in a hectic situation and checking into a hotel, Everything was going wrong. Lost items, late. etc. (my normal existence) and he saw me standing near the hotel check-in and there was one of those old timey wood slat benches next to the side of the window. He walked up to me and said “You know my favorite memory of you?” I said “What?” and he pulled out his billfold. It was brown and well worn just flipped open no frills. And he had a photo inside. The picture looked like one of them from the 60’s with the big white border and the different less vibrant color tone. I was riding a horse like the ones outside a drug store. I was blonde headed and my hair was flopping all over the place and I was cutting up like a little kid. I looked about 15-20. Not sure cause I looked like a woman young. The picture was animated so I could see me cutting up and acting like a horse and neighing like one and being a general goofball. He smiled at me and tucked it back in his billfold and stuck in his suit. The suit was white. He had silver white hair and it was kind of whispy. He had a long face. I said to him “I don’t remember that at all” He said “It is the things you don’t remember that can sometimes be the best.” I said “It is also the things you can’t that can be as bad.” He grinned at me like he knew exactly what I was saying. He said “do you know who this is?” At that point he pointed to a boy who was near me and throughout my dream was helping me to find stuff, calming down here and there and showing up out of nowhere. He was handsome but not that tall. maybe 6 foot. He had darker eyes, not sure maybe hazel. He had a short hair but a very flat hair line arond the forehead. The old man said “This is your brother.” I said “The one my momma lost?” He said “He is your half brother.” I was puzzled. I said “I know that my daddy fooled around but just at the ports” The old man said “Ain’t all things seem and you need to think about what you don’t remember.”

    I often dream about my best friend – and he was very my best friend, we were so close no one could separate us. In dreams, he is alive and sometimes he is healthy and sometimes he is a rotting corpse but we interact and it’s like two levels, my dream self just interacts with him like the old days so to speak, but on another level of consciousness I always know that he is dead. Has he been resurrected? I don’t believe in life after death but maybe my friend is trying to tell me that there is a kind of life after death. I don’t know. I really hate the dreams where he shows up as having been in the grave for 3 years – which is true, but maybe that’s just displaying fact.

  17. Daniel

    Firstly, dreams are basically always premonitions – of trouble, that our brains try to resolve. Unresolved tension. The meaning of your dream is that you feel enclosed and not in control of your direction in life. You’re not driving the car. You are looking for answers by way of “the old ways”. But these may not be the best answers for you. Look for new ways. Still, your family surrounds you and keeps you.

    I’ve been having dreams about my relatives that have passed away. The person I dream about the most is my Gran who died a few years ago. Her death wasn’t unexpected but she a few weeks after she found out she had cancer. I went to visit her when she was in a hospice and i wasn’t expecting her to look the way she did, a few days later she had passed away. Since then I have been dreaming about her. I’m not sure if it’s because I was sad to see her go or it was because I regret seeing her when I visited her in the hospice. The dreams started off with her just looking directly at me and nothing else and gradually talking to me. I can’t recall what she said, it could’ve been advice or just a normal conversation. I have had a few dreams about my Granddad who died when I was 8 (I am 20 now). He died very suddenly and I still don’t know what had happened to him but I’ve never had a dream about him after when he died. The dream I remember the most is that he was really cold, stone cold. I was trying to warm him up with blankets and all that but it didn’t seem to work. Im not sure if this dream was anyway related to his death or not. All I know about his death is that he suddenly passed away in his sleep. I also have had a few dreams about my Uncle who passed away a few weeks before christmas in 2015. The dreams I have had is that i was at a funeral that he attended but it seemed that he was at his own funeral. I never went to his funeral. The second dreams what that he was dying and I was documenting everything he was doing. i recall documenting my feelings buy drawing sad faces.

    Ive read a fair amount of why people dream of dead relatives but I cannot relate to most of it. It seems like there is more to my dreams that google can explain. Can someone help?

    Why do we dream about deceased.. I don’t kno I don’t see the advantage.. I’ve gone through the whole rainbow of dreams.. Now it’s just dreams they appear in , when I wake I’m like why .. It must be in my subconscious …why why

    1. Maya

      you dream about them because they love you and tell you they are watching you no matter what happen if just a dream,, they come in your dreams sometimes to tell you things or a sign.. and they miss you when they appear in your dreams and make you dont forget them…

    When my mom passed in 2002, I have felt so much guilt in me. I had no idea she undergone a heart surgery. I found out the day she had the surgery. I went to the hospital right away and saw her. When I visited her she started crying, I held her, hugged her and I told her, we will talk when she’s better and out of the hospital. She couldn’t speak because of the tubes taped on her mouth. I went home and felt a little relieved that I saw her after a few months of not talking and seeing each other over a misunderstanding. Hospital called me the very next day to ask to come to the hospital right away. I got there and all our families were there. That’s when the doctor said they did everything and that she’s gone. I couldn’t believe it until I saw her lying on that bed in the hospital, not breathing anymore. Ever since she died for 4 years there was never a night she would never be in my dreams. Weird dreams I had. For months, She would get up from the coffin and walk towards me and hug me without saying anything. Months has passed same dream over and over for 4 years but she was talking to me, telling me things like she was talking to me in person or something. Telling me how she knew she was gonna die after her surgery but she had to do so I could come and visit her. I would wake up in the middle of the night every 330-4 am crying having the same dream over and over. I always ask people what does the dream mean? I’m always told to pray for her soul. I do.

  21. Maria

    From time to time, I dream of my father who passed 6 years ago. He is present in my dreams, but I never actually see him.

  22. Liz

  23. rose

    i recently started to keep a “dream journal”because idk whats going on. i have all these deceased people come into my dreams some i know and some i do not i met my gradpas brother in my dream and i have never seen or heard of his brother and he told me his name in my dream and he died way before i was born im 26 years old. i asked my mom if she had heard of that name and described him to her and she said it was her uncle he died when my mother was young. so that freaked me out i also dreamt of my grandpas sister who i had never met and she was along side my grandpa in that same dream. My grandpa just told me he was fine .then a little after that i had 2 kids come into my dreams i told them the other kids cannot see them that they were dead they said it was fine that they just wanted to play and they were thirsty that was a weird one to i did not know these kids.Then i dreamt of my nephews grandpa the day of his viewing, i never talked to this man at all and i asked him what he was doing and all he said was that he was waiting and was carrying a thick book, and well now i learned that he liked carrying big bibles around, and that exactly how i seen him in my dreams. Then ,arch 19 , 2016 i had this young girl come into my dreams, around her 20’s and i asked her how i knew her she said i knew you a long time ago, and handed me a bunch of letters all i got to see was that she dies in 2012 and just saw her intials as L.Y i have no idea who she was. SOOO if anyone know what all these dreams are about please let me know because iam confused i do not understand it???

  24. Bridgett Riley

    I dreamt my deceased mother was alive. She didn’t know she died. As she experienced the same symptoms that she caused her death, we couldn’t rebury her. Because her insurance wouldn’t pay for a second funeral.

    Both of my paternal grandparents died suddenly within three months of each other when I was a child. For a number of years I had recurring dreams and nightmares about my grandmother – before one day I told my father about a dream I’d had involving her dying over and over again in the dream, and nothing I could do would stop it. He said to me that perhaps she was trying to show me that when she died, it was her time to go. From then on I had no more dreams about her. My grandfather only ever appeared in one dream, and that fairly recently. I found myself in a huge hall with marble floors and pillars, and wooden walls. Light streamed in through large windows, and he was standing in front of me, with his arms open. I hugged him, and in the dream I started crying because it really felt like I was hugging him, and I recognised his old scent, even though it had been fifteen years since he died. It felt very comforting. Since then I haven’t dreamt about him again.

  41. Gloria

    I have happy dreams about my deceased in laws and my dad. It is always something fun. They have been gone for quite a few yesrs. I even had a dream date with Patrick Swayze, weird right?

    I am battling cancer right now and was wondering if they are waiting for me.

    Also I dream of three small babies or toddlers. One had my sister ‘ name. My daughter had 2 miscarriages and my son’s wife had one to. Could these have been my grandchildren? They were with my deceased sister in law.

    I just glad to see them happy, although I am not.

    1. E.Roberts

      Hi Gloria, I’m sorry to hear about your illness. I wish the best for you. I had a dream about my ex and he came to me as if he never died. He was happy and in the dream so was I. I woke up thinking that was his way telling me that everything is okay and I don’t have to be concerned about his well being he’s happy. I said that to say this your grand kids are happy too in heaven. Gloria keep on fighting and while you still here on earth go out and do something nice for yourself and for someone else. Even if it’s just kind words. May GOD bless you with a clean bill of health…

    I had a dream that I visited a psychic about my house being haunted and she told me that my deceased father has come to her on several occasions in order to communicate with me. She said he is with me everyday and that he cries for me and says 5 “Our Father’s” a day for me. She told me his name, which was correct. Unfortunately in the dream it was difficult to hear her because we were in a loud restaurant. Also, a waiter and waitress called me by my first name, however I did not know them, but I had this overwhelming feeling in the dream that they were people who have passed on but in a different body. What do you think this means? It bothered me that the psychic said in my dream that my father cries for me, and I asked her if he was happy and I couldn’t hear her response!! I’ve had other dreams about my father, however he and I were face to face. This is the first one where someone in my dream came through and said that my father contacted them to get a hold of me!

    I just dreamed about my dead father giving me a purse

Anyway, in the dream he was not in good condition and seemed very depressed, his mother was taking him to the hospital, when she told me that he was alive, but was very sick(disabled), i want to call her to see how she is doing, because i had also not attended the funeral, but this morning i cant find her phone number.

    i replied to your comment because i needed someone to write to and i came to this website and saw that your story, it seemed very similer to mine , and i thought you would understand, thanks

      Lisa,

      It means nothing… Now that’s not to say the dream didn’t have purposes. And the purpose of your dream was to set the record straight… You see, your ex-boy friend did not know that he was actually dead… That’s why he thought he could take the kids. Now that he knows what’s going on everything should be fine… UNLESS he feels that the kids are hurting… Then you can expect him back.

    I also had a Cousin who passed away 3 weeks back and didn’t attend his funeral too. But when I heard the news, I cried.

    Just dreamt of him sort of giving me(and my family I guess) a weird and scary warning. Now I’m feeling uneasy all over:(

    I have a dream that my deceased mother comes to the house while we are in the process of moving to babysit my grown up children.She sits in a chair in the dark and as I ask her why, she says she does not want to bother me as I am busy. During the dream I see small prepared meals on plates that she says they are hers for the next week and not to worry about her, when I ask her how she is, she always says “your life goes on but I know I’m dead” They are extremely upsetting and I can wake up and then carry the dream on later which I have never done in a dream before. I recently dreamt of a deceased friend who was also aware of her own death. I speak to my mother about seeing the friend in the same dream and my mother says Well she’s dead like me so why shouldn’t you speak to her?

      Your mother feels that you need to leave that house for whatever reasons I’m not sure. I have come to realize that moms advice is usually the best advice… So if I were you, I would be getting the hell out of there!

      In the broken dream she is trying to let you know that there is a reason you may want to relocate for…
