Dreaming that someone dies can often become a source of dread or fear, but remember that dreams are symbolic!
Sometimes such a dream is a call for us to pray for protection for that person.
Most times, though, death represents something coming to an end, or a shift of spiritual direction. It can be a relationship, a season, a quality or characteristic, a task or responsibility.
Such a dream may be alerting you to the need for a particular issue to be dealt a ‘death blow’.
Consider the important characteristics of the person who dies, as well as context and circumstances–these are clues to unlocking what the ‘death’ may be about.
Ask yourself, ‘Who dies, and what does that person represent to me? Could their ‘position’ in relation to me have meaning? (an authority, a mother-type figure, a friend, a supporter, an enemy?)”
