for people who know about dreams only?

Question

My mother passed away 3 month ago and I had a dream last week about walking in the grave yard talking to some guy (I don’t remember his face) and it was snowing and the guy told my to lean down and brush the snow off my moms head stone (which she does not have) and there on the right side of the headstone it looked like a page with writing in the stone, anyway I know what the dream means so far I just don’t get what the headstone means? Please help!

I know that snow means purity and cleansing
And walking through the graveyard symbolizes a feeling of loneliness

the man was talking to me and showed me the headstone.and told me to dust the snow off around it so i could read it (although now i dont remember what it said)

me and my mother were very close she was my best friend

Answer 1

To see a headstone in your dream, represents a forgotten or buried aspect of yourself which you need to acknowledge. Consider also the message on the headstone. It may indicate a statement about your life and its condition.

Answer 2

The symbols that appear in our dreams don't have universal meanings. Any book that claims that a certain symbol always means the same thing whenever it appears in a dream is not a useful book about dreams. You are the best interpreter of your dreams. This isn't obvious, and it is very helpful to read about dream interpretation from a good source in order to learn how to interpret your dreams. The main thing is that only you will know when an interpretation is correct, because it will feel correct.

Now, with all of that said, I think one possible interpretation of your dream is that you are still looking for some kind of meaning or message from your mother's life -- something that you hoped to learn from her before she passed away. The fact that you weren't able to read or remember a specific message might just mean that there isn't really anything specific that you need to learn from her now, only that you have a feeling that there might be.

A really great book on dreams is given in the source below.

Answer 3

A headstone sometimes says something about the type of person who is buried there. The snow could be the passage of time or bad memories. Don't forget what who your mother was or remember the good time. Or I could be totally wrong about what is sometimes on a headstone

Answer 4

It's possible the writing on the stone represents your mothers "wishes" and your inner need to want to be sure that your mom is remembered, and not forgotten, by all those that loved her by having a headstone placed for her sometime soon. Being that you do not remember the guy, or his face, he was incidental. The main part of the message was : mom, headstone, writing, message. Hence, I believe your mom needs herself a beautiful headstone to represent the person she was on earth. My best to you and your family.

Answer 5

In life, a headstone is a memorial to a person. In the dream world, many times it represents your memories of that person. A huge headstone may represent alot of memories; a crumbling headstone may represent a poor relationship; etc.

My feeling is that there is a "story" (symbolized by the page) you were remembering about your mother.

I hope this helps. Peace.

Answer 6

Your headstone means your legacy.The last words that will describe your life.......
Another meaning is a to see a headstone in your dream, represents a forgotten or buried aspect of yourself which you need to acknowledge. Consider also the message on the headstone. It may indicate a statement about your life and its condition.Hope this helps....

Answer 7

Apart from the obvious things that could be said and the aspect of mourning I offer you my interpretaion with all respect,,I do not mean to offend ..

The headstone can be a statement about your life and is condition..The right side was written that is important//

'''''By brushing away feelings of judgement and your critical intellectual approach you can move on the future..""""

The guy was a guide and my feeling is there were also things in the relationship with your mother that still need to be forgiven and let go in order for you to move on..

Also look here for cutting cords...though http://www.dream-analysis.com/dreams/themes-in-dreams.htm#pregnancy/ (funeral) if you feel the attitude i "accuse you" of having was your mom's,,,and check out the quote there..
-------------------------------------------------------------------
snow: repressed feelings, critical, judgemental

grave: digestion elimination system

right: intellect or future

White alone can indicate a proud, rigid, judgmental immaturity - a ‘should be’, controlling attitude. (combined with other colours they do see it like purifying in Aisling, again they have been right on for me, brush the attitude away and move to the page of your future.,)
--------------------------------------------------------------------
I use Aisling dream interpretation to start always, not as comprehensive as some but also looking to clean your body and always right on..I also interpret events that happen while 'awake' with these symbols as I know this is "a dream" as well//

Answer 8

The headstone symbolizes announcement. You must think hard about people who need to know about your mother. You must tell them about your mother and what kind of woman she was. There are those who wander with questions unanswered. The tombstone is a remembrance piece and sometimes tells the living about the deceased that lay in that spot. Therefore, you must answer the questions that still exist regarding your mother.

Answer 9

Their is something about your mother (God rest her soul) grave stone, that you are not agree to or happy about it. Go back again and see what is wrong with what it says on the stone. This or some one told a lei about your mother that you heard in her life, which is not true.

Answer 10

headstones, signs, and other such things represent a message that your subconscious is looking for... it seems you have a question left unanswered...
