a dream of death O.O

[Faelon_Moon_Hawk]

Had a rather disturbing dream last night... I dreamt my sister died ;_; I don't really know how, that part was never made clear in my dream, potentially it was a car accident, but i'm not sure. I only remeber bits of the dream, but I know for at least part of it I was at the funeral and wake w/ my family. And I also think part of it took place before that. I was sad in my dream, a little confused, cause i didn't know how she died, and stunned, but I didn't cry.

Not sure why I dreamt of this, but it is the third time i've dreamt of my sister's death. The first two times were long ago, when I was in elementary school. She must have been like a toddler at the time.

Anyway, i'm kinda unsure of what this might mean, any help?

Dreams of Death are not necessarily a foreboding of physical death, but rather a transitional death. As physical Death is a transition into another plane of existance, so can you have a death within life. For instance, maybe she is on the verge of some realization or shifting into higher energies, coming into some new "power" if you will. Fear not the Hand of Death, as he is a gentle Guide who brings news of healthy transition. Although I am sure your dream has brought you to a place of fear, try viewing it from this angle and you will surely gain some peace of mind.

"To dream that you die in your dream, symbolizes inner changes, transformation, self-discovery and positive development that is happening within you or in your life. Although such a dreams may bring about feelings of fear and anxiety, it is no cause for alarm and is often considered a positive symbol. Dreams of experiencing your own death usually means that big changes are ahead for you. You are moving on to new beginnings and leaving the past behind. These changes does not necessarily imply a negative turn of events. Metaphorically, dying can be seen as an end or a termination to your old ways and habits. So, dying does not always mean a physical death, but an ending of something. "

From the same site, an alternative to the interpretation above:

"To see someone dying in your dream, signifies that your feelings for that person are dead or that a significant change/loss is occurring in your relationship with that person. Alternatively, you may want to repress that aspect of yourself that is represented by the dying person. "

Hope that helps you understand better.

Well what qualities do you associate with your sister? Maybe the death of her in your dream means you are losing those qualities within yourself?
