Dreams.....what does this one mean????

Last Saturday night my aunt committed suicide.I was unaware of the events of that night till about 3 days ago.On last Sunday morning I was woke by a dream that i was having.My dream was about the devil chasing me as I was trying 2 save someone else. The devil kept coming from underneath me & trying 2 grab my feet as he was chanting "I'm gonna get you".when i finally was outside of this building he was chasing me through I was standing in front of tall logs.at the top of each was a person.i was trying desprately to get to the middle one.I have no idea who was there at the top of there logs.but as i got closer something grabbed the person in the middle & took off.Then i woke up.Please dont say im crazy but i think this was about my aunt passing away.what do you think?Do you beleive that you can be so close to someone that you can sense when something is wrong.before i went to bed that night i thought of calling her but decided it was 2 late. i only wish now that i would have.

Update:

the devil did have a face. He was red and very skinny. i could only see the top half of his body b/c he was coming from underneath the ground.

    Oh dear, I'm so very sorry about your aunt. I can't imagine what made her go that way, but at least she's at peace from whatever was making her suffer that much. As for your dream, I don't think you're crazy at all, it is totally possible to be that connected to someone. First of all, being chased is a reflection of anxiety about something (this might mean that you felt guilty about not calling her or that you felt something was going on). Running usually is a reflection of how you handle stress or fears. The one pursuing you might be a part of yourself; in this particular instance, you might've felt (without knowing why, of course, since you didn't yet know at that time) that something was stopping you from doing something (calling her) while you were trying to save someone (getting to her on time, even if by phone). Now, the Devil usually represents guilt. Maybe you knew your aunt was having problems, you just didn't know she'd go that far? The fact that you were trying to save someone in the middle might indicate that it was a worry about someone central in your life (were you that close to your aunt)? Someone taking the person who you were trying to save might just mean your impotence before inevitable loss; feeling that you could've done something but didn't act when you should have.

    Don't feel guilty, and don't feel like it means that your aunt's not going to Heaven because she took her own life (there's a lot of crap going around on that, and I don't agree). At least her pain is gone, and she's around you in many ways.

    Feel free to write if you need to talk, okay?

    Hugs.

    Source(s): (The fact that you saw the typical red devil is just how you're used to define the ultimate evil, it had that face for you because thta's how you grew up believing it was, and I think most of us have that image of it).

    To interpret this dream overall, you'd have to give some personal info... but there's a dream dictionary site that gives a lot of helpful stuff, like this:

    To dream about the devil trying to harm you or coming after you probably means you're having a Toxic Dream. It can also mean you've experienced "ill will" in real life recently (a mean or violent person, stories on the news, a scary movie, etc.), or something has triggered memories of these negative things.

    Here's the website so you can look and do some interpreting... also, if you're interested, I think you can email your dream to people on this site and they will interpret it for you...

    To try to interpret the dream, it is important to know what the devil looked like, or did he even have a face? That said, it is not impossible that there is a genetic interconnection with those that you share DNA with, and that you could sense something, like in a dream, when someone dies.

    I dont think youre crazy at all. Wether it was about your aunt or not the dream certainly would suggest it. Am I king of stating the obvious or what?

    All dreams mean something. wether significant or not.

    i do think this had something to do with your aunt. Not exactly sure though.

    I have dreams sometimes that tell me whats going to happen, lots of the time the dreams is exactly what happens (like watching a movie).

    I'm sorry that this happened to you. Please don't blame yourself for it. It is not your fault at all.
