After the death of someone very close to us, we are having a lot of dreams of this person; it can be a father, grandfather, mother or any other relative. It is our mind that recreates the image and the feeling of our beloved ones. The depth of the connection between a person and the father or grandfather of him is the reason of how much dreams about deceased relative the dreamer might have. Psychologically, it is the representation of what happened in waking life, our minds still accepting the fact of the death. It means that the feeling of the security in the life of the dreamer has changed and developed to new level, where the dreamer is alone responsible for it. He has it all in his own hands, what was before the death shared between him and his father or grandfather.

Dreaming about the death of the father while he is alive

It is strong dream. Personally, I had such dreams often while my mother was alive. I know the feelings that are triggered by such dreams and the meaning is also very clear for me, but it is very individualistic and can’t be attached to everyone’s dreams. By my personal experience, the dream about the death of a relative was the realization of deep hidden expectation that the death is not avoidable and the acceptance of it before it happens is the solution to the inevitable changes of my life. Generally, the creation of such experience while we are dreaming is based on amazing ability of our subconscious mind to prepare us so that we become more stronger and capable to bear anything who might seem first unbearable. In other words, the dream about the death of the father (or other relative) while he is alive is the training to live a life without him (or any beloved one). So, this dream means that after each of such dream we become stronger. Also, it announces that sooner or later we will receive the authority, power and wisdom that our father or grandfather have.

It means that you can bear a lot of more and that depends only on your own wish. There isn’t anything to stop you. Keep in mind that and all your wishes comes true. If in the dream you seen resurrected grandfather, then it symbolizes constant wisdom that is around you.

Talking resurrected father/grandfather
