I had a dream my sister was dead in a casket

The narrative felt somewhat disjointed, as it shifted from the funeral to moments of confusion.

Sister's Funeral

The dream felt heavy and sorrowful, as my sister lay lifeless in a casket.

The intensity of the dream was overwhelming, leaving a lingering sense of grief.

The scene was quite realistic, with details like the casket's design and the somber atmosphere.

The dream was strikingly vivid, especially the colors and faces of those present.

Lauren, your dream of seeing your sister in a casket evokes strong imagery that is often steeped in profound emotional and psychological meanings. The presence of death in dreams, especially when it involves a loved one, can trigger a cascade of feelings, including fear, loss, and unresolved issues. Your subconscious may be grappling with feelings of vulnerability regarding your relationship with your sister or reflecting on the changes in your life. It is essential to consider how you felt during the dream; were you in mourning, confused, or perhaps even relieved? These emotions play a critical role in the interpretation of such a powerful symbol.

  The casket itself is an emblem of finality and transition. In dreams, it may represent the end of something significant in your life, perhaps a phase of your relationship with your sister or a part of your own identity that you feel is changing. Are there aspects of your life that you feel are being 'buried' or left behind? This could be related to growing up, moving on from childhood dynamics, or even the fear of losing your connection with her as you both navigate your adult lives. Your subconscious might be urging you to confront these feelings rather than suppress them.

  Moreover, the figure of your sister specifically could be a representation of your own inner self or aspects of your personality that you associate with her.

Dream About Sister In Casket

I dreamt that a classmate told me I could apply for a job when I’m sleeping. So you’re working while in a dream. It sounded weird but it was as if I had to, it sounded like I didn’t have a choice. Getting there was really weird, it was a tall building. You had to open a coffin and put on some sort of armour. And then you had two work phones. So then I guess you descended into the building somehow and fell asleep? But during your sleep you were working? I sat at a desk. Not many was at work. But my classmate and my twin was there and a teacher. I didn’t understand anything. It was like we had to solve math problems or something weird. Everyone knew how to do it and told me I would learn it eventually. And on top of that you actually got paid. My ex was then at the same table as me? He knew how to do it and it seemed he had been there a while. He tried to explain it to me but I didn’t get it. My excuse was that I was too tired and couldn’t listen properly. And then suddenly we had to climb a roof or something. He went first and waited for me to hold onto him but because of me we fell down the roof? The only way to be stuck to that roof was to put your nails in the roof but it was so tilted so it didn’t work. I didn’t understand this part of the dream?

Dream About Working While Asleep

I was in England with my dad and a friend. There was an amusement park which I was excited about. I didn’t go on any of the rides because we saw there was a church which had a viewing of Princess Diana in coffin. We had to pay $5 to go in to pay our respects. When I went to pay, there was a commemorative book that I decided to buy, but the one underneath it was filled with money. So I quickly picked it up and switched it before anyone could see. I put it in a plastic bag and went to pay my respects to Princess Diana. When we looked at the money afterwards most of the money was real but some of it was fake like the stack of bills that were extremely large dollar amounts the don’t normally exist. I was happy.

I attend an event for like newcomers at school. And there i found someone i know (theres 1 person that idk if i like them or not but wtv). I say hello to them, and then apparently i died but im still alive rn. So I asked them if they know abt it. They saw me in the coffin and gives me the video of it. And its true, its me on the coffin. But i didnt remember any of it but ik that i died once so i asked them if i can see it from a video they have.

The narrative was somewhat disjointed, moving from a social interaction to a surreal confrontation with mortality.

Newcomer's Event and the Coffin

The dream carried a mix of confusion and curiosity as I interacted with someone familiar at an unfamiliar event.

The intensity of the dream was moderate, highlighted by the shocking revelation of my death.

The surreal experience of seeing my own coffin felt both bizarre and unsettling, blurring the lines between reality and dream.

The details were quite vivid, especially the image of the coffin and the emotions surrounding it.

Jean, your dream about attending a newcomer event at school is rich with symbolism and reflects many of the underlying emotions and experiences in your waking life. Starting in a setting that represents a new beginning, like school, suggests a desire for connection and acceptance, yet it also hints at uncertainty. This feeling of ambivalence toward the person you encountered highlights a struggle with your own feelings of belonging, particularly in a space that can feel overwhelming and unfamiliar. The presence of someone you might not fully like indicates that you are grappling with complicated relationships, perhaps mirroring your own internal conflict about forming connections with others. 

  When you experienced your own death in the dream, it serves as a powerful metaphor for transformation. It may signify a part of you that feels lost or disconnected, perhaps tied to your experiences with trauma and anxiety. The fact that you were still alive after this event suggests resilience, indicating that despite these feelings of loss, you are capable of moving forward. This duality of being dead yet still present signifies the complexity of your emotional state—feeling as if you are merely existing rather than truly living. 

  The coffin symbolizes a confrontation with your past, particularly with the traumatic experiences that have shaped your current outlook. Seeing yourself in the coffin while being unaware of how you got there captures the essence of feeling trapped by your circumstances, a common sentiment for those dealing with PTSD and anxiety.

Dream About Dying And Seeing Myself In A Coffin

Picking out body parts with my favorite characters to make my new body, not as a human person, but as a vampire or something like that
Because I was killed somehow seconds before that
I’m in a dark hall of some castle, and those characters from my favorite games with wide range of ethnic and historically accurate motifs and outfits from the game Reverse: 1999 is calling out to me from above opened coffin, discussing and telling what options I have and such as they operate
One is an opera singer, other is a yankee girl from the 50-70’s idk when(cowgirl aesthetics), another looks like a scientist dude character from the 70’s UMA horror fictions, another looks like an opera singer in her costume from Victorian era, another’s a dandy lady from the similar age with a hat, a castrated young genius mad scientist who looks awfully androgynous, an Italian assassin who does his jobs with shadow dogs
Idk the rest but it’s raining out and it’s dark, chandelier hanging from where I can see

Sex with a ghost by Teddy Hyde is playing in the backdrop of my head

The dream had a somewhat coherent storyline, though it was fragmented at times with the various characters and settings.

Rebuilding My Body with Favorite Characters

The dream had a mix of excitement and eeriness as I was rebuilding my body with characters from Reverse: 1999.

The intensity was high, especially with the urgency of reconstructing my body while being surrounded by these vivid characters.

The dream had a blend of real and fantastical elements, such as the dark hall of a castle and the characters' detailed outfits.

The dream was highly vivid, with clear details of the characters' appearances and the dark, rainy setting.

 1999, each with their unique historical and cultural motifs, suggest a blend of influences and identities you might be grappling with. Their presence and the discussions they have about your body parts indicate that you are in a phase of evaluating different aspects of yourself, possibly influenced by various external sources and personal experiences.

  The opera singer, yankee girl, scientist, and other characters each represent different archetypes and eras, hinting at a multifaceted identity. The opera singer from the Victorian era and the dandy lady with a hat might symbolize a desire for elegance and sophistication. In contrast, the yankee girl and the mad scientist might reflect a yearning for adventure and intellectual curiosity. The Italian assassin with shadow dogs could point to a hidden, darker aspect of your personality or a need to confront and integrate your shadow self.

I had a dream I was on this big alien ship. The inside kinda resemble what I assume a large alien mall would look like. Yet very clean. There were plants and stuff growing normally on board too. Anyways this lady with bright red (super) curly hair dropped me off on earth saying I must save god. This was either the beginning or end times of earth. I’m not sure but earth looked like a frozen tundra with visible blue like energy flowing between the snow blanketed trees. It was Ethereal. I’m not gonna lie to you dream notes, I kinda wish I could see it irl. It was so pretty yet kinda spooky cause there weren’t any creatures seeming to inhabit the plant. I felt things there but very few in my witchy perception. In the very center of there earth, I found a white glowing coffin where I assumed god layed. I didn’t actually see his face but I knew instinctively what he looked like. His hair was Snow White and quite long. Not like a girls hair but definitely longer giving him an elf like effect. Very tall and slender I think. A guy. The coffin was locked and I needed to find the key yet I had no idea where to look or if that’s even what I was supposed to do. There was this massive hellhound guarding him though. The beast was kinda scary and growly but as soon as I approached the coffin it layed at my feet all cute like. What a confusing creature. I remember thinking “You should really make up your mind if u wanna eat or cuddle”
The silly thing got me a stick and had me throw it for him 💀it was pretty wholesome tho. The massive black creepy dog bounding toward me with a mini stick in its mouth. Its head was like the size of my body. 
I remember the lady said only I could save him, Only I had the key but I just could not figure out what that was supposed to mean? Earth had looked like a frozen grave yard in the dream.

The dream was coherent overall, but had fragmented elements that added to its mysterious and otherworldly nature.

Alien Ship and Frozen Earth

The dream evoked a sense of urgency and responsibility to save god, with a mix of awe and fear at the frozen earth's beauty and desolation.

The dream was intense, with a strong emotional and visual impact that left a lasting impression.

The dream had a surreal quality, with a mix of familiar and unfamiliar elements blending seamlessly.

The dream was highly vivid, with clear and detailed imagery that felt almost lifelike.

Brianna, your dream is a rich tapestry of symbolism and emotion, reflecting the complexities of your inner world. The setting of the big alien ship with a mall-like interior and flourishing plants suggests a sense of otherworldly abundance and growth, perhaps symbolizing your desire for new experiences and opportunities. The red-haired lady's task for you to save god in the beginning or end times of earth may reflect a deep sense of responsibility or purpose that you feel in your waking life. The frozen tundra and ethereal blue energy evoke a haunting beauty, mirroring your fascination with the unknown and the mysterious. The scarcity of creatures in the dream world and your 'witchy perception' hint at feelings of isolation and uniqueness, as if you're navigating a world that others may not fully understand. The discovery of the white glowing coffin at the center of the earth, representing god, and your instinctive knowledge of his appearance, suggests a profound connection to spirituality and a search for meaning. The presence of the locked coffin and the need to find the key could symbolize your quest for unlocking hidden truths or resolving inner conflicts. The appearance of the massive hellhound as the guardian of god, initially intimidating but ultimately friendly, may signify the presence of challenges or fears in your life that you're learning to navigate and understand. Your interaction with the hellhound, from fear to playfulness, reflects the complex emotions you may be experiencing in your waking life. The dream's overall atmosphere of frozen desolation and the sense of being the chosen savior of god may reflect feelings of burden and uncertainty in your current circumstances. Brianna, your dream is a vivid and intricate reflection of your inner world, weaving together themes of responsibility, spirituality, isolation, and the search for meaning.

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.

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.

Janine, your dream holds profound symbolism reflecting your subconscious thoughts and emotions. The setting of a garden, a place of growth and life, juxtaposed with the theme of death, signifies a transition or transformation you might be going through in your waking life. The presence of your father or grandfather suggests ancestral connections or authority figures influencing your decisions. The desire to hear music, particularly Wagner's 5th, symbolizes a search for harmony or inner peace amidst the chaos. The shift from a garden to a cemetery indicates a shift from vitality to acceptance of mortality, hinting at your contemplation of life's impermanence and the cycle of life and death. The young woman adding something beautiful could represent new insights or perspectives entering your life, bringing beauty amidst sorrow. The cemetery moving to a crevice near a mountain cliff signifies an acceptance of the inevitable end, yet finding solace in the grandeur of nature. Your learning of death yoga postures signifies a spiritual journey towards acceptance and understanding of the inevitable. Overall, your dream reflects a deep introspection into the notions of life, death, and finding peace within transition.

I was in a dream among many people. The dead body was of a late prominent person. This person had died years before I was born. Suddenly as the people were carrying the coffin it accidentally fell on one side. And th body came off the coffin. His prominent son who still is under our country politics started hitting the face with a big rope for him to wake up. Again I see another like body of the dead watching the scene like it was not the person being hit. Still wearing the same blue suit. I'm not connected to this family or anything to do with them but I got really confused over this incident. Why would I dream something like this. Why would the son hit the dead body to wake up and stop being stubborn falling off from the coffin. Why wasn't I scared I remained confused and watching the scene with much curiousity. I wanted the dream continue but unfortunately it was very short.

The dream's narrative was somewhat coherent, though the central incident of hitting the dead body raises questions about its overall logic.

We all were sad and wanted to end things ig.  My dad then offered me drugs since it was my last day and me and all of my friends and I got high off of Marijuana edibles. We walked around everything got super disoriented. Im pretty sure somewhere down the line i got offered crack and i took it. I had a seizure and everyones face was super weird. For some reason my teacher was there and also signed the contract and he was announcing that it was time for us to die. Some people were refusing but eventually the teacher convinced them.Then it got time for us to die and we all got into this coffin thing but it fitted all of us. My teacher was also there and gave us each one more edible since we were gonna die. When we were all in it felt as if the coffin was falling and eventually it hit and then we all died. Then it went to black.

The dream had a somewhat disjointed and fragmented quality, with abrupt transitions and illogical elements.

The Surreal Party that Ended in Death

The dream was highly vivid and detailed, with the characters and events described in a clear and tangible manner.

Hey Abi! Thank you for sharing your dream with me. It sounds like a very intense and unsettling experience. Dreams can often reflect our subconscious thoughts, emotions, and fears in symbolic ways. In this dream, the initial plan to attend a light show with your friend turning into a party at someone's house may represent a shift or unexpected change of plans in your waking life. The idea of signing a contract to die could symbolize a sense of feeling trapped, overwhelmed, or burdened by certain circumstances or responsibilities.

	The presence of your dad offering drugs and getting high with your friends might suggest a desire to escape or numb yourself from the difficulties or pressures you may be experiencing. The disorientation and the encounter with crack leading to a seizure could symbolize the negative consequences or dangers associated with seeking unhealthy coping mechanisms. Your teacher's involvement and persuasion to accept death could indicate feelings of authority figures or external influences pressuring you to conform or make choices that go against your own desires or well-being.

	Considering your previous dreams that mentioned feelings of being ignored, forgotten, and contemplating self-harm, it seems there may be underlying emotional struggles or a sense of isolation that is manifesting in these dreams. It's important to acknowledge that dreams are highly personal and subjective, and only you can truly uncover the specific meaning behind them. However, it may be beneficial to explore these recurring themes and emotions further, either through self-reflection or with the support of a trusted individual or professional who can provide guidance and help navigate these challenging feelings.

	Remember, I'm here to support you and provide insights based on the information you've shared.
