Ghost Dreams

Ghosts often appear in our dreams as a manifestation of negative feelings, experiences, and unresolved inner turmoil that hasnt been laid to rest. In order for ghost to disappear the dreamer would need to find out what is metaphorically haunting them.

In order for the unconscious mind to make the dreamer aware of these rejected issues, it will cleverly disguise the ghost as a symbol or the things that still haunt you. The dream atmosphere can feel quite unsettling or vivid that is commonly known to occur time and time again. Though there seems to be a fine line between an actually ghost in your dream or an actual visual hallucination called sleep paralysis.

Ghost Dreams Meaning

Do you ever wonder why the majority of ghost dreams conveniently enjoy haunting us in houses, apartments or building? Well it turns out that these so called structures represent the dreamers psyche – the inner architecture or psychological structure of a person. What has been built or constructed in the past comprising of  emotions, relationships, environments, and past life experiences shapes the way you are today.

In order to cast out the ghost from the psyche the dreamer will need to become a paranormal investigator to locate where the trauma is hiding. These repressed issues might be related to family issues, painful memories, death of loved ones, feelings of love, hate, anger, jealousy or embarrassment. The dreamer will need to become its own paranormal investigator to find and remove theses repressed feelings that need to be cast out of the psyche.
