Dreams are often seen as messages from unseen forces, but some scientists argue they are just the result of brain processes during sleep. Dreams can reflect our day or our fears, and when we dream of a deceased person, it may relate to changes in our life, such as a new job or a move, and how we are coping with them.

How we feel in the dream is more important than the dream itself. Psychologist Rubin Naiman explains that dream interpretation helps expand our psychological awareness. While some scientists view dreams as meaningless byproducts of brain activity, others believe dreams hold spiritual significance, as seen in cultures like that of indigenous Australians.
Experts classify these dreams into four types:
- Dreams of a deceased person may help process the pain of loss.
- Guilt over unresolved issues with the deceased may trigger these dreams.
- Seeing behaviors of the deceased in ourselves could lead to such dreams.
- Some believe these dreams are visitations, especially if the deceased appears happy and well.
Regardless of interpretation, dreams often offer meaningful insights into our emotions and our connection with the deceased.
