Dream Dictionary
A dictionary from the Spellbook — symbols A–Z, and themes from Alphabet through Wedding.
The symbol list and themes follow the Dream Moods A–Z dictionary and theme pages. The readings here are written for the Spellbook. A symbol is a reading, not a prediction.
Death in a dream is usually an ending, not a forecast. A habit, a role, or a season is closing. If you are grieving, the dream may simply be grief.
B
Bereavement
Grief in the dream is sadness you have not let out. If a real loss is underway, the image is part of coping.
Black
This color is the unknown, danger, mourning, or a lack of support, and it invites a deeper look at yourself. It can also be open potential; with white, it asks for a cooler decision, or names a low mood.
Burial
The ceremony of putting to rest means a bad habit or a negative situation has been released. Burying the living, or being buried while alive, is turmoil and a feeling of being stifled.
