Okay. So I had a dream that I died.?

By being stabbed in the throat. It was odd. Like, I was in the back of this armored truck that seemed impossibly long, and there were about two 'bad' guys in the armored truck that had uniform on, like soldiers. There were piles of bodies in the truck that were either dead or barely alive, and I was among the piles. So then one of the guys walks down from the end of the truck, stabbing the bodies as he walks along, whether the person's dead or not obviously doesn't matter to him.

I pretend to be dead, but I get stabbed anyway, and I die. It was odd. I didn't feel any pain whatsoever, and for some reason, I had a soul. I don't believe in souls, but anyway, I became like this light-blue.. mist-like soul and I floated all the way over somewhere far and eventually reached this Japanese girl and I just suddenly 'replaced' her soul, sort of, and became her. Odd, yeah.

I woke up after that. Oh yeah, I have to note that the day I woke up, I was going to visit a concentration camp. Dachau.

    This is pretty obvious and topical.

    It was a nightmare. AKA a toxic dream, usually a very realistic, upsetting dream that is most likely to occur when your body's cleansing system is overloaded during sleep. They are usually terrible nightmares and their purpose is often simply as a signal that you went to bed in a physically toxic state.

    Too much food, alcohol, stress, loud noise, etc.

    Thanks for including the context of your dream -- visiting Dachau. Certainly, it explains in part why you chose that specific imagery. Still, I would wonder who the men in the truck are and what they might represent for you. It's possible that you feel that something or someone is "killing" you, or stabbing you in the throat -- which could mean silencing you. Sounds as if you had some identification with those who suffered in concentration camps.

    Ultimately, you are the final authority on what the dream means. It isn't something you can look up in a dream dictionary.

    To dream of death being you died or someone else is not physical...it could mean a end to a matter, a friendship, a habit, a ..whatever....

    I truly thing the reason you had that dream and in that vivid memory is your trip to the concentration camp. I would have had the same dream.... just anxiety...

    Die

    To dream that you die in your dream, symbolizes inner changes, transformation, self-discovery and positive development that is happening within you or in your life. Although such a dreams may bring about feelings of fear and anxiety, it is no cause for alarm and is often considered a positive symbol. Dreams of experiencing your own death usually means that big changes are ahead for you. You are moving on to new beginnings and leaving the past behind. These changes does not necessarily imply a negative turn of events. Metaphorically, dying can be seen as an end or a termination to your old ways and habits. So, dying does not always mean a physical death, but an ending of something.

    On a negative note, to dream that you die may represent involvement in deeply painful relationships or unhealthy, destructive behaviors. You may feeling depressed or feel strangled by a situation or person in your waking life. Perhaps your mind is preoccupied with someone who is terminally ill or dying. Alternatively, you may be trying to get out of some obligation, responsibility or other situation.

    To see someone dying in your dream, signifies that your feelings for that person are dead or that a significant change/loss is occurring in your relationship with that person. Alternatively, you may want to repress that aspect of yourself that is represented by the dying person.

    It seems like you died and was born again into another life. Seems like you was dreaming on the base on reincarnation.
