Dreaming of Your Mother Dying - dream meaning with inherited lore

Rather than assuming that a scene of your mother dying means something will actually happen, it may be a symbolic dream about your fear of changes in the relationship or of becoming independent.

Your mother disappears, or a scene like a funeral appears, and you cry hard or stand there in a daze. Even after waking, the sense of loss may linger for a long time.

Korean lore: Traditionally, death in the family has sometimes been interpreted as a symbol of change and transition. A mother's death may also be seen as representing the move from being protected to taking responsibility for yourself, or a major change in the relationship. (In folk dream interpretation, death is sometimes read not only as an ending or loss, but as a scene in which a previous state is changing.)

Through the mind: You may have felt that your relationship with your mother is no longer what it used to be, or had this dream during a change in life stage, such as marriage, independence, or changing jobs. The fear of losing someone you love may also have appeared as a powerful image while you slept.
