Dec'd Husband | Former Lover Dream Interpretations
Dreams can provide insight into our deepest thoughts. Using dream interpretation to explore dream symbols and uncover a dream's meaning can lead to a better understanding of ourselves.
(background info: My husband passed away unexpectantly almost 5 years ago. We were highschool sweethearts & solemates and meet when I was 15 & he was 18. We were together 14 years and married 8 of those. I remarried 11 months ago.)
My Dream: I have had this dream a few times since my 1st husband passed away. -- My 1st husband is still living and my inlaws know where he is and talk to him. (I have a really good relationship with my inlaws and we are very open with eachother, so this part of my dream doesn't make sense to me.) They wont let me know where he is and I am searching frantically for him. I can't find him - It doesn't matter how much I beg to talk with him or see him or even know how he is doing I can't get anyone to tell me anything. I feel lost and I'm sure that if I can just be in front of him for 1 minute he will realize that I need him and that we should be together. I am crying out for him and he doesn't hear me. I feel like I am running in circles and can't get to him. Sometimes it feels like we got divorced in the dream and not that he ever died. I can't figure out why he doesn't want to be with me. I can't figure out what I can do that will make it all right. I usually wake up trying to continue the dream and not openning my eyes and I am usually feeling really panicked when I do open my eyes.
I can see every detail in this dream and I usually spend most of the day after I have this dream thinking of it. I will try and see my husband in my dreams for a few nights after I have this one and it doesn't matter how much I think about it, he wont come back into my dreams when I am begging for it (good or bad, I just want to see him again.)
WHAT DOES ALL THIS MEAN? I HAVE HAD THIS DREAM 10-12 TIMES IN ALMOST 5 YEARS.
Your dreams indicate that you are still trying to process the loss of your first husband; and integrate this loss with your life now. I was married to my second husband (whom I loved very much) for ten years before I had fully processed the grief connected with my first marriage. I found processing grief to be like peeling an onion - working on one layer at a time.
