my grandma passed away in january of last year. i had a dream that she called our house, she sounded distressed and unhappy. she told my mom to meet her by a stop sign in front of our house. and also in my dream, i saw my mom walk to the stop sign and i looked out and it was my grandma standing there too. the image was faded but that's something to expect when they've passed away. it shook me up a lot. i told my mom about the dream and she had one soon after. do you think she really is unhappy? she's never done anything bad which i believed to mean she is most definitely in heaven. i'm sure she is but she seemed unhappy. help, what should i do, or think?

If someone who you love has died and they appear to you in a dream, the dream is usually VERY vivid. Almost like you're awake and the person is standing right there. You can almost FEEL their presence.

Dreaming about your Grandma is perfectly normal. It may be that your dreams are expressing YOUR concerns about whether she is alright or not. Do you have a particular belief or faith that is of support? If not, it may be that you are a little unsure of where her self, her soul is...

Trust me, you will know if you have a "Vivid Dream", the ones where someone on the Other Side of life are giving you a message or reassurance!!

My father passed away June 25th of 2003. After his passing I had many dreams about him. Some strange, some sad and some very good. Dreams can be interpeted in many ways. What did it mean for you? Did you feel sad or uneasy about the entire dream? You know considering that your grandma called looking for your mom to meet her, maybe this is your grandma's way of letting you know that there may be something wrong with your mom. Is your mom dealing with the passing of your grandma okay? I am a believer that dreams CAN be a link to a lot of things. keep track of them and compare your notes from time to time. It also helps to talk about it to others and get there insight.
