We all react to death in different ways, and dreaming of death is nothing unusual. It’s rather common. It does not mean you are going to die, but anxieties are predicted. Throughout his literature, Freud interpreted, the dreams of death due to sickness, especially if they’re about our own death. These are supposed to occur because all humans beings are afraid of death. They see death as something unknown, considering the fact that no one has died once and come back to share the experience. No one knows what happens after we die. Meaning, we can’t accept being dead one day. In fact, each one of us in the unconscious is convinced that he or she is immortal.
