I had a dream where I was in my family’s home. My mother, brother, and I were in our empty room that wasn’t filled yet. We had tarp laid on the ground and had painting supplies to put a new layer on the walls of the room. I felt a hand touch my shoulder and I turn around to see my grandma who had passed away years before. I was shocked and had my breath taken away as I gazed at her. My mother and brother either didn’t see her or thought everything was normal. She then said ‘I’ll be watching over you”. I teared up and woke up from the dream crying not believing what I had just saw.
The dream about your grandmother could represent your longing for her presence and influence in your life. The empty room where your family was preparing to put a new layer on the walls could represent a desire to start anew or make changes in your life. Your grandmother's appearance and reassuring words indicate that you may feel uncertain about the changes you are about to make, and you are seeking support and guidance from someone you dearly love. Seeing your mother and brother not seeing her or thinking everything was normal could suggest that this experience is personal and unique to you, and that you have your personal ways of coping with loss and seeking comfort. Overall, this dream may be a sign that you are ready for a new chapter in life, but you seek reassurance from your loved ones who have passed away.
