The following interpretation options are usually associated with the appearance of the dead in a dream: usual presence, resolution of issues and condemnation.
Remembering a dream in which you were visited by a deceased person can be a little creepy, but its appearance in itself does not carry a large semantic load for the entire dream. This is an ordinary dream in which the sleeper sees the deceased alive and unharmed, just a participant in the situation. In such cases, as a rule, the deceased is not a significant character in your dreams. Perhaps his image is caused by memories of some event in which both the sleeping person and the deceased were once participants. It is quite likely that in a dream this way manifests hidden sadness and regret that the person who was dear to you is no longer around. The category of permissive dreams includes dreams in which specific events and actions are associated with the dead. In this case, the appearance of the dead becomes the central event of the unfolding plot. Maybe you don't have what they need, or their behavior causes you certain emotions (positive or negative); in any case, the action or the inability to do it is one way or another related to the resolution of the relationship. Depending on whether the relationship is allowed or not, there is a share of condemnation or joy in such dreams. "Condemning" dreams show us the dead either simply dead or zombies. Such dreams cause heavy feelings, because we cannot do anything to change the situation. What character traits were the deceased endowed with during life? (For example, Uncle John was a saint; Aunt Agnes was as vile as a snake, etc.) Did their behavior in the dream match the real one or were they different? Perhaps you should try to better understand the personality of the deceased, to understand how others saw him.
