Death

Since ancient times, death has been interpreted and understood only as a change of one life to another one. Perhaps from a difficult life, challenging and intensive work to one of peace and tranquility.

Dreaming of death somehow suggests the desire to have a change in life, for example, economically, at home, in employment, business or a renewal of life. Dreaming of death may also be a consequence of extreme fatigue and physical exhaustion, which among other things produces melancholy and disappointment over little things in everyday life. This dream also usually happens after living with great enthusiasm due to false optimism and high hopes, but having it all fail. Therefore death only symbolizes pessimism and depression that will not last long and will lead to new hopes and wishful thinking. Dreaming of being in agony implies that the suffering and effort in your life will allow you to enjoy a better life in the future.
