What does it mean when a deceased person appeared in someone’s dream?

I dreamt of my dad after he passed. I remember he was painting a sunset and I mentioned how amazing it was, we talked for a while. It really comforted me, I'd only got to know my dad properly the same year as I hadn't seen him since I was a young kid.

Anyway I told my mother about it and she told me she'd spoken to a medium weeks before and she told her that my dad had moved on and had started painting. There's no possible way I could have been influenced as she never told me. So I think there is a spiritual connection or other dimension/afterlife, she probably visited you.

It's weird I had a dream I relived my grandpas death. We were at a party for some reason and my grandpa stepped away to rest (a thing he would do often at parties), then my aunt came in saying he's dead. I had aunts and uncles laughing and carrying on like nothing happened. I was so devastated and everyone was just fine, and I carried him from his chair to his bed he was a corpse shrunk in and tight to the bone.

It was something that was hard for me even after waking up.

It just means you were thinking of her.

She is letting you know that she is watching over you.

I believe they are reaching out to us. I hope you embrace those moments.

As others said, that she was on your mind. Some cultures would see it as a visitation when you needed her.

My dad has appeared in several of my dreams since he passed last summer. It was comforting.

I hope you “get” the message. Try to recall how you were feeling during the dream. And what thoughts you had after you woke up.

Wow.... you had a visit in your dream...!basically it means shes on your mind!

When deceased appear in your dream it mean you’re missing them so much

I truly think it was a visitation from her.
