Dreams of a child, sibling, parent, spouse or friend dying reflect change in our perception of that relationship. Old qualities of the person are &#8220;passing away,&#8221; new qualities are being recognized. Dreams of the death of an ex-lover reflect separation in the relationship, while the death of a love interest in a dream reflects a change in your feelings for that person (your feelings for them have &#8220;died.&#8221;) Death of an enemy or a threat in a dream often reflects your sense that you have or can overcome or evade that person in waking life.  \u00a0Mothers of toddlers often dream of accidents, including death, befalling a child. These dreams are not precognitive. Rather, a mother&#8217;s concern for her child&#8217;s safety, represented by the accident, never rests!<\/p>\n<p>Dreaming of one&#8217;s own death (a dreamer may witness his or her funeral or may &#8220;just know&#8221; that he or she has died) symbolizes an inner metamorphosis and an evolution of development. Old ways of perceiving are passing away; new self-discoveries are being made. This dream is a symbol of transition. <br \/><strong><em><br \/><em><br \/>Related Dreams<\/em><\/em><\/strong><br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/articles\/watch-my-death\/\" id=\"517\" option=\"com_content\">watch my death<\/a><br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/articles\/a-symbolic-death\/\" id=\"509\" option=\"com_content\">a symbolic death<\/p>\n<p><\/a><em><strong>Related Dream Symbols<\/strong><\/em><br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/dream_dictionary\/dead-body\/\" id=\"580\" option=\"com_dreams\">dead body<\/a><br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/damwebserver.com\/dreamdoctor\/dream_dictionary\/dying\/\" id=\"689\" option=\"com_dreams\">dying<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Death in dreams is a consistent symbol for change, transition and separation that should not be interpreted literally.
