your body does not know what it is like to actually die. therefore you cannot dream "it". your dreams are just thoughts rambling through your mind while being relaxed enough to allow it to happen. I know this sounds funny but it's rare to actually have dreams that one can remember and those who do, have active brains while in sleep mode. Your mind can only wonder what it's like to die. Dreaming of dying is another thing. Mostly because you are sort of watching it happen and not actually experiencing it.
I have seen what I call my fate in a dream I once had. I dreamed that I was decapitated in a car accident when I was around 9 years old. That was the only time I "saw" myself die. But the dream ended after that and I woke up. I remember that dream to this day very vividly. I thought of it as more of a premonition.
Have you ever seen your own face in dreams?

I've died countless times in dreams. Sometimes it's very painful, and I wake up sore like I really had died. Other times it's more detached, and not that bad. It is a myth that you will die in real life if you die in a dream.

it's bs. i've died in two dreams where i "woke up" after dying. and those are only the ones that i remember, who knows how many times i've died in total?
i think you're not ready to die in a dream because you're not sure what will happen after you die. as you become more aware of your own beliefs in this regard you will get closer to the moment of death. when you react to that moment with calm and expectation of an afterlife rather with fear of your personality being extinguished, you will experience the little death.

I've SORT OF died in a dream. I drove a car off a highway, then I was sort of looking down on my family and their reaction to my death. If that counts. But it was weird because I believe in reincarnation, not heaven.
You don't actually die in real life if you die in a dream. That's stupid. But it's possible to die in a dream.

All dreams have some type of meaning. If you die in a dream, it has a specific meaning. It can mean the end of a stage in your life or many other things. Maybe THAT specific dream doesn't fit your specific situation in your life right now. But YES it is posible to dream your death.

How do you want to die in your dreams? Get ran over by a
big simi truck..sword fight over Repunzel..freeze to death in
the Antarctica..or jumping from an airplane with a million dollars
without a parachute, knowing you'll never get to spend it
anyways??? just some ideas.
