I dreamed that I have a 1 older brother and 1 younger brother and I'm the only girl of the family. We live in a big house but we usually hang out on the first floor or our home. One day our family go outside and visited a cemetery. My brothers and I roam around the vicinity just to check something and I saw a man , I can't remember if it's a human or a ghost but it follows me that made me scared. My big brother is protecting me infront the man and said "Don't come near my sister, I'm warning you". Then my younger brother hugged me from the back and said "Go away" then we immediately go back to the car and go home with our parents. Shock with what happen, I'm crying at the hallway going to the guest bathroom. My big brother saw me and told me don't cry the man will not hurt me anymore then hugged me. He leave the house to pick up the food he order for our family gathering. My cousin's started pilling up the house and they heard what happen. I saw the man on our window and I run inside the guest bathroom which made me cry more. I wake up with a heavy heart, I feel like I am really crying.

I just had a very strange dream about, Steven and I were at the cemetery, and there I was, these hidden, almost like water slide tunnels, behind certain grave markers. Like you'd scoot the grave marker that wasn't nearly as heavy as you would think it was, and there would be a hole and a plastic tube with water in it. And if you sat in it, it was a water slide, and it was really bizarre, and I think we were working there at the time, like both of us had jobs there at the time, and so we were trying to avoid, you know, the other people that worked there, or maybe a manager or something, because we were having way too much fun with the water slides, and like there was this whole underground part of it. And at one point, we realized that whoever owned that place was videotaping us 24 hours a day. And it was like, uploading it, it was really bizarre, like there were these little canisters that were actually video cameras that they had hidden inside of, like I'm going to say, the stick shift in the car was definitely one of them, even though I don't even drive stick shift, I'm not sure how that works. My car's an automatic. I mean, I can drive stick shift, but in my dream, I guess, I had a stick shift car. And then, it was in, there was one in the coffee cup that I was carrying around. It was really bizarre. It was almost like the Truman Show or something, but at one point in my dream, I turned into an African-American man who was carrying a baby. Now, here's the really weird thing. The only thing I was wearing was a pair of sneakers, and I was carrying around my baby, and I left the cemetery, and I ended up wandering through traffic, and luckily, everybody stopped. I was walking, and it worked, but I guess I was trying to get home. It was really friggin' weird, and I woke up about the time that I was walking, going, sorry, sorry, sorry, holding a baby in one arm and having my hand up with the other arm, talking to a bus full of people, stark naked, wearing nothing but sneakers, and I happened to be a black guy. It was really weird. Very strange dream. Very strange.

I was in a car with my mom, my mom parked the car in front of the cemetery gates, at the cemetery gates, I saw through them, in front of me and the gate, nadine's mom holding a baby. 

There is also nadine's father behind nadine's mom, and then Nadine appeared and jumped to her mom, hugging her mom with a bright smile, I was shocked, My heart was filled with love and butterflies when I see her. 

Then me and my mom walked to the soup store, she orders 3 different recipe soups. 

Therefore, I asked my mother, "At the parking lot, I saw Nadine, do you know why she is here in the cemetery?".

But then she said, " It is because they are dead, those are their souls", Thus I was shocked, then I saw aunt Mila and Ikmal walk by the soup store, I asked my mom how did all of them died. 

She said my grandfather got a car accident that killed aunt Mila, grandfather zaher, My brother Ikmal, Maid Rina, and Nadine and her family died of an unknown cause. 

I was even more shocked, I ask her to pledge in the name of God if this was true if everything was true, it was really painful for me, I started thinking that this was a dream, but then she said, "In the name of God, they are truly dead, Innalillah WIIR".

I am truly devastated and depressed, I saw out of the soup store, many happy faces, the faces of happy resting souls. 

Then the soup seller tells us he knows us, he was a relative of aunt Rina, he told us a story which I forgot.

Dream Of Being Buried Alive 2

I was watching two of my friends were inserting a cannula into a patient in my home country. (I am a medical student, sri lankan, currently living in China). They were talking why I don't come often and I was telling that I am getting ready for the lisence exam, that's the only way to pass it in a one go. Then the scene shifted. I was looking for the friends of my mom, in Gampaha hospital where my mom used to work as a pharmacist for years. main drug store of the hospital is familiar to me and we were having a good chat, smiling. My mom's friends were appreciating me like always. Then, I came out of there and it was raining heavily. I walked along passages of wards and came out of the hospital. Since I know the hospital the scenes were very vivid. Suddenly I was walking with my high school friends and university friends in uniforms of my high school. It was raining and I was trying to overpass the uni friends who were talking and walking slowly. Because of umbrellas it was hard, and I couldn't go quickly. Then I saw we have reached the cemetery near my home. After passing the cemetery, it's my home. I wanted to go home quickly and tried to go by a grave. Suddenly i got trapped in to the ground. I can remember when I tried to come out my legs were hit by two three tombs. And I can remember a decaying mummy too. One of my high school friends too was with me. Hashini came and gave hand to her, ganguli. She could finally go a little higher compared to me. Meanwhile budhvin, one of my highschool friends tried to help me but he was so thin to drag me up. Then I was helping ganguli to go up first by pushing her so that both of her and hashini can help me to come out. Then I woke up five minutes before my alarm, 5.25 am.

Hey, it was dawn and I saw this dream. I am a Sri Lankan and currently living in China away from my home. I saw my mom has prepared some porridge and ask me to distribute them among us. I offered the first offering to Lord Buddha's offering tray and when I looked into pot with our cups I saw no porridge left there. And we understood that a spirit is living in our home. My father went and bought a fregrance from shop and we put it into the burnt coconuts shell and make the smoke spread everywhere in our home. (This is a traditional way we use in our country to fill houses with a pleasant smell, with prosperity). We took a pic before and after doing this. Saw our home was cleared with out the mist and saw the mist had shifted somewhere. It meant to shift it to the next place. We have a cemetery next to our home. But then the dream shifted and I saw my sister with me who is currently living in Australia. We were pasting the same fragrance dust there instead it throwing it to the coconut shells. When I asked why it was meant to destroy spirits than shifting them somewhere. It was somewhere like a temple that I've never visited. We were aiming fox symbols there, saying spirits go and stuck there. Saw blood came from some symbols when we paste the dust. Suddenly a spirit came out and my sister was fast enough to paste the dust on a symbol and it was destroyed. Then another spirit approached her she clearly screamed to paste the dust. I did that but the environment went black and white. I clearly saw a female spirit with a saree was looking at me and it went inside me. I tried to talk to my sis to inform her like she did but I couldn't speak. Before I take another glimpse of the dream suddenly I woke up at 5:58, two minutes before to my 6am alarm.

Dream About Sitting In Sunlit Cemetery

I was at a buffet with my sister for dinner at night. her and I were in the front of the line waiting to get salmon that was being offered, but there was a hold up because my sister wasn’t old enough to get salmon which I found strange. Either way, I ended up getting salmon And putting some on her plate as well. The dream transition to me being at a cemetery with my grandma on my dad’s side who had passed away and a man I’ve never met before who seemed to be my great grandfather. My great grandfather was old and frail using a walking stick. I was helping him walk down the stairs of the cemetery by holding his body and hand. as we were walking down my grandma and my great grandfather were talking about a flood that had affected the area a little while ago.  All of a sudden, my great grandfather started getting a weaker and more frail, and started to slowly collapse. The dream transition before he collapsed. The dream then turned into me playing baseball on 
Wii sports with someone, but I wasn’t able to hit any of the pitches that were thrown to me and I ended up going the whole game without scoring. even though it was frustrating wasn’t too upset because the game ended in a tie, zero to zero. Then all of a sudden I was playing football in a football stadium and my team was losing and I couldn’t do much about it, which was frustrating. We ended up losing the game. afterwards I found myself playing a game of soccer against some younger Italian kids and again I was frustrated because we’re losing to kids I know I should’ve been able to beat

Buffet, Cemetery, and Competitive Sports

The dream was tinged with frustration and confusion, especially during the sports sequences and the cemetery scene.

The realism was moderate, with familiar settings like a buffet and a cemetery, but the sports transitions were less realistic.

The dream was quite vivid, with clear details of the buffet, cemetery, and sports fields.

Jantzen, your dream is rich with symbolism and offers deep insights into your subconscious mind. Let's delve into the various elements. The initial scene at the buffet with your sister signifies a sense of responsibility and care you feel towards her. The hold-up because she wasn't old enough to get salmon might indicate a perceived barrier or challenge she is facing in real life, and your action of putting salmon on her plate shows your protective and supportive instincts. 

  The transition to the cemetery with your grandma and the unknown man, presumably your great grandfather, represents a connection to your ancestry and the wisdom of your forebearers. The act of helping your great grandfather down the stairs symbolizes your respect for the past and the guidance you seek from it. The conversation about the flood suggests unresolved emotions or past events that have impacted your family, hinting at a need for healing or resolution.

  As your great grandfather begins to collapse, the dream transitions, perhaps indicating your fear of losing touch with your roots or the frailty of family ties. The shift to playing baseball on Wii sports where you couldn't hit any pitches but ended in a tie reflects a sense of struggle and frustration in your current endeavors, yet it also shows your resilience and ability to accept outcomes without being overly distressed.

  The subsequent football game where your team is losing and your inability to change the outcome highlights feelings of powerlessness and frustration in situations you feel you should have control over. Finally, playing soccer against younger Italian kids and losing suggests a fear of being outperformed or underestimated despite your capabilities.

I find myself in a coffin as a 12 year old boy. I am wearing all white robes. I underneath my robes I am covered in sweat. This is clearly the aftermath of the rape I experienced at that age. I can also smell the order of my perpatrator on me. As I get out of the coffin I read the headstone which reads "Hayden G 1995-2008" which is the year I was born, and the year I was first raped. I walk around the cemetery and find many empty graves. These graves all appear to be children who were abused at some point in their lives. I leave the cemetery and enter my perpatrators house. However when I enter the room in which I was raped there is nothing there except a coffin with his name on it. Then I walk to my childhood home and I am greeted by my mom. I ask her what happened to my perpatrator and she doesn't even know who he is even though is real life she knew him.

The dream had a coherent storyline despite the surreal elements, making it feel like a symbolic journey through past trauma.

The emotions and memories in the dream were intense and overwhelming.

The dream felt very realistic, as if I was truly experiencing it all over again.

Hayden, your dream delves deep into the realm of trauma and its lingering effects on your psyche. The image of being in a coffin as a 12-year-old boy clad in white robes symbolizes innocence tainted by a painful experience. The sweat under your robes signifies the enduring emotional turmoil you carry from the past. The headstone with your name and the years 1995-2008, marking your birth and the year of the trauma, highlights how this event has become a defining part of your identity. The empty graves in the cemetery represent the untold stories of others who have suffered similar fates, creating a sense of shared pain and isolation. Entering your perpetrator's house, only to find a coffin with his name, reflects a desire for closure and justice that eludes you. The absence of your mother's recognition of the perpetrator in your childhood home mirrors the complex nature of trauma's impact, sometimes hidden even from those closest to us. Your dream is a poignant reflection of unresolved trauma and the search for healing and understanding.

Dream Of Walking In Cemetery With Dread

I was just there and just talking them through it but then I got what I needed. I found the section where my great-grandparents grave was and I was going to set out to go and look for it and I met up with my friend and we said hi and that was the end of it.

Hello Andrea,

	Your dream of being at a cemetery in search of your great-grandparents' grave, while also helping and explaining things to others, suggests a connection with your past and your heritage. It may reflect a contemplative period in your life where you're looking to understand where you come from and how it has shaped you. The fact that you weren't overwhelmed by responsibility and were able to find the grave signifies a sense of resolution and peace regarding your family history.

	Considering your previous dreams, there's a recurring theme of animals and protection, as well as moments where you take charge or provide guidance. This cemetery dream ties in with your role as a mediator and a source of calm for those around you, similar to the dream where you were steadying others amidst small troubles. Your ability to navigate emotionally charged situations with a sense of purpose and calm is a significant trait that surfaces in your dreams.

	Take care, Andrea, and reflect on these patterns that seem to be an integral part of your dream world. They may offer insights into your waking life and the strengths you inherently possess.
