    Of course! It all depends on the dream.

    Yes - I have had a repetive dream for many years about my sister who died in 1989 of cancer. The main theme in the dream is that she has come to visit, but always in the dream she can never stay. I am in amazement that she is actually there as well. In ancient cultures there was a belief that the veil between the spritual world and the 3 D world did not exist. I beleive that these dreams are actually the deceased person coming to visit you in the dream state.

    In a way i kinda do think there is a meaning when you dream of a dead person you know but than i dont think so cause it can just mean you miss that person and that you just cant get them out of you mind

    It is funny that I read your question today. Last night I had a dream about an ex patient of mine and opened the paper today and read his obit.

    I dream of the deceased members of my family quite often. The dreams are sometimes positive, sometimes negative, but unlike most of my dreams, these I remember for a much longer time. I personally like to think that they are still watching over me and helping to guide me through life. I also recognize the fact that I am very angry at some of them and I believe my subconscious reacts to that.

    In conclusion, whether it be belief or subconscious, I believe you are being told something for a reason and that needs to be taken seriously. Who knows it may improve your life.

    A person’s life is full of dreams. Dream can be about one’s ambition which he gets fulfilled with the passage of time thru his own hard work, intelligence, good planning and with the blessings of Almighty. Another is day dreaming which is really not a good habit and can be controlled with one’s will power. But what about the dreams a person experiences during sleep. Do they hv effect in our real life? What do they mean? What is their interpretation? The person asks to his friends, elders and seniors in his social circle. Sometimes he gets satisfactory reply and sometimes not. These days Internet is a rich source of information. So one does not need to depend on others for one’s dream interpretation. The Yahansmaniac Community member suggests the following.

    I dream about my father who passed away a few months ago-I believe it's the mind's way of coping with the grief and trauma of losing someone close but some of the symbolism in my dreams does make me wonder if there is a deeper purpose to them because I belive in life after death.

  • 1 decade ago

    Yes, that means it is warning of other livings. They just symbolize how you will miss the other people. However, if you are not close to that person, it may just mean that a sign of life. You should take care of your life and people around you.

    Try to make an effort to listen and pay attention to the dream - it could be a way of somebody trying to contact you.

  • 1 decade ago

    yes...i was raised to believe that the dead can contact us in our dreams...it is often a sign that they need our help

    absolutely.

    or at least I like to hope so.

    I dream all the time of people I know in real life and the stuff is true when I talk to them again.

    so --

    why not.
