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. Whether it’s true or not, that is precisely one of the main symbolism of death in dreams: change of life. For example, dreaming of death can mean the disappearance of ambitions and selfishness and that leads into spirituality. 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. Dreaming about someone else dying suggests that some relatives or friends are going through a streak of bad luck, which can affect the dreamer. Dreaming of almost dying, but not exactly agonizing, warns that your affairs are getting worse, including your health. Dreaming of wild animals dying suggests that troubles that you might have will soon come to an end. If a pet is the one who dies, then it indicates that problems will get worse, and this dream acts as a warning for the dreamer….

Adopting a child represents a change in life, and therefore there may be a change of house or city, or perhaps employment or business, or for anything in which you have found major setbacks.
