If someone dies in your dream, it is a symbol of your unconsciousness. Dreams may be our deepest, most secret thoughts, but we never talk about them. When we dream about a death, it is actually a symbol for a person we do not want to know, because we are not exposed to him or her in our conscious life. The death of someone in a dream, however, is also a symbol of our tendency to ignore the real issues in our lives. The death in a dream may also be a symbol that tells you that you need to make a change in your life. Death in a dream is nevertheless a symbol of the unconscious. It is the shadow of your subconscious that wants to take over your life. You may be avoiding something in your life, and death will represent that in the dream. It is a symbol of ignoring a problem that needs to be addressed.
This is a very common dream theme and has many variations. In this dream, you are happy and celebrating because you have heard good news about a death. This is another way of saying that you are actually frightened by the prospect of death, but you are suppressing the fear because you are afraid of the consequences of the fear. What you need to do is face your fear of death so that you can become a stronger person.
Most dreams about death don’t have a literal meaning. Although seeing someone die in your dream does represent a loss of some sort, it doesn’t necessarily mean that the death is real. In fact, the dead person may represent parts of you, or even your own self, that is dying. A recent loss in your life is the most obvious explanation for this dream.
