soul mate gets killed
I’ve been having these recurring dreams where I wake up feeling intense fear. They started last fall, after a visit to a dear friend of mine. I’ve thought that I was in love with this woman for years now. It had been a few years since I had seen her, being that we live hundreds […]

Hi Barrett— Death in dreams is a symbol for change and separation, and should not be interpreted literally. When we dream of our own death, the meaning is even more poignant. A time or phase of our life is drawing to a close (passing away), while a new future is beginning. The description that you […]
visiting a friend
About 8 months ago, I found out that a high school friend of mine had gotten pregnant and had a child. Ever since then, I have dreams every so often that I go and see her or that I run into her somewhere. The one dream in particular that I had that really bothered me […]

Hi Athena— Dreams of death always are disturbing. When we dream of our own death, the meaning is even more perplexing. Upon awakening, our minds immediately want to know: Was the dream precognitive? Is our life in danger? Fortunately, death in dreams is a metaphor for change and separation. If we dream of our own […]
macho man
Craig was my best friend from high school until 15 years ago. I grew up and he didn’t. We went our own ways. He didn’t work, but he drank, took drugs, and abused his wife and family. He died three years ago from an abscessed tooth. Craig was very much a “Macho Man”: the look, […]
death in the family
Hi Christy— We are sorry to learn of your fiancé’s cousin’s death. As if your lives weren’t hard enough — coping with the grief — now you and your fiancé both are dreaming about death! Your recent dreams would cause anyone to wake up confused! Your first dream shows a clear concern, on your behalf, […]
separate boats
I have been engaged to a woman for several years now, and this past week I have had 2 dreams involving another woman that I don’t know. There is sexual attraction, but never any sexual interaction. It seems that I wake up just before a sexual encounter may occur, and this week is the first […]
watch my death
THE CORRECT ANSWER IS… A. A significant change in your life Hi Fiona— Isn’t it a paradox that a dream of our own death can make us feel alive — and even relieved? The reason why is because death in dreams almost always symbolizes change. And in this case, it appears that you are ready […]
wrong girl
I am a 30 year old male, single, a fine artist and web designer. I have recently met an exotic dancer (I’ll call her Jenny), and we have become friends. I wished for us to be more than friends, but she has since gone back to her verbally abusive boyfriend. This is not the first […]
girlfriend is cheating
Last night I had a dream that my Girlfriend was cheating on me with my cousin and her best friend. I went after them; angry and confused. I asked her if she loved me, and she said that she stopped loving me when we stopped making out. I felt as if my life was over. […]

Before I tell about my dream, you should probably know what’s going on in my life that’s been occupying my mind lately. I just graduated from FSU with a degree in Acting and I am planning to move to New York to jump right in and see where acting takes me. I’m not really nervous […]
head on my book
I do not know if my dream is related to anything at all. It has two parts. First: I am riding on the subway during a rush hour. I am sitting and reading a book. All of the sudden, something is covering my book. It is a human head with gray hair, that are long, […]
