Answer 2

I know of a very useful online dream interpretation that makes a lot sense in helping me figure out my dreams.

Based on your dream, I have found some meanings to some keywords in your own dream;

Wife
To see your wife in your dream, signifies discord and unresolved issues.

Ghost
To see the ghost of a dead friend/relative in your dream, suggests guilt and regrets concerning the past relationships with that particular person.

Hate
To dream about hate, indicates repressed aggression and your fear of confrontations. On the other hand, you may forcing your views and opinions onto others. Consider the symbolism of other elements in the dream to find out what is it that you really hate.

Phantom
To see a phantom in your dream, represents guilt, fear, and/or repressed memories. Your dream is serving as a medium for you to face your fears and thus it is important to pay attention to what message the phantom is trying to convey.


It's great isn't it? I'm sure these interpretations might be really related to your past relationship and emotions with your deceased wife.

Good Luck!

Answer 3

While we're awake, we are constantly receiving information throughout our daily lives. I think that sleeping allows our brains to refresh and expel the excess information by filtering out what's unnecessary and storing the things we need to keep. I think dreams are a by-product of this process by the involuntary firing of certain neurons and strengthening of neural pathways which constitute our memories and ideas.

That being said, I don't think that dreams are necessarily meaningless, but rather are specifically tailored to each individual's perceptions and feelings about any given subject. For example, a dream about a rotweiler could invoke feelings of nostalgia or happiness for someone with fond memories of their pet rotweiler from childhood, and fear or hatred for someone who was attacked by one last year.

In regards to your dreams, your wife's continuous appearance and attitude likely reflect the feelings you've been carrying around about her for the past 2 years. The fact that she "hates" you in your dreams indicate to me that you fear that's how she would treat you if she were alive today, and likely relate to a certain amount of guilt you hold onto. This guilt could stem from any number of things, such as your relationship with her before she died, the manner in which she died (delivering your baby), something you did or have been doing since she died, and so on. In any event, you clearly have pretty deep issues about it, as anyone would after such a traumatic experience, and you should probably seek professional therapeutic help.

Answer 5

being a very amateur dream interprter- I would guess you are probably just missing her, along with a bit of guilt. It's not your fault she passed.
Typically dreams of dead close relatives usually relate to your feelings for them. I've also found that persons you have been close to will often visit you in your dreams. Dreams are an extension of yourself- everyone and everything in your dream is a part of you. Forgive yourself for your wife's passing and love your child with all your heart!

Answer 6

Sounds like you have sivivors guilt.
You problely need to go and talk to someone.
I would also like to know what dreams are and mean....I am also having dreams that seem to warn me of an even that will come in my life. This frightens me and angers me, is this real or is this my feelings coming out in my dreams. I have asked my Dr. what he thinks that they mean, he feels that they are your feelings that you repress or fear.
Having them feels so real to me, to you too? The dreams effect my days and my relationship.
I wish the best of luck for you and your daughter, show her the love that you had in your marriage, let her always know that she is loved and wanted.
best wishes....
