Dream of friend, walking, wall, knots, ladder, safe, steps, way, big, climbing, path, niece, pebbles, wake, body, dark, death, old, rope, arrested, need, friends

I'm walking in some countryside, not a particularly nice place, a bit arid and dark and I'm with 8 years old niece and one of her friends. We arrive at a point where there is a big, tall wall made of pebbles (or something like that) which we need to climb. The wall has like two protrusions (or steps ?) a third up, and then another step/ protrusion two thirds up and there is a path which gives us access to these. When we arrive to the second step though, the only way to get to the top is via a rope ladder, which is attached to the top. My niece goes first and reaches the top, but a rope in the ladder snaps just as she arrives to the top. Now it all happens very quickly: she knots up the broken bit, and while I'm thinking: "will it be safe enough?" her friend starts climbing the ladder. Half way through the ladder snaps though, and, to my horror, she falls to her death - I see her body getting splattered on the step below. The horror doubles up when I realise that I am the adult, responsible for the two of them, and I haven't warned them enough of the dangers, so I'll probably be arrested for negligence. I wake up.

Dream Interpretation Analysis

If you seem to be going from it, you will force yourself to seek a change in spite of friendly ties or self-admonition. To dream you see a friend with a white cloth tied over his face, denotes that you will be injured by some person who will endeavor to keep up friendly relations with you.

Meaning of death in a dream

End of a cycle. Something is finally over. To dream of seeing any of your people dead, warns you of coming dissolution or sorrow. Disappointments always follow dreams of this nature. To hear of any friend or relative being dead, you will soon have bad news from some of them. Dreams relating to death or dying, unless they are due to spiritual causes, are misleading and very confusing to the novice in dream lore when he attempts to interpret them. A man who thinks intensely fills his aura with thought or subjective images active with the passions that gave them birth; by thinking and acting on other lines, he may supplant these images with others possessed of a different form and nature. In his dreams he may see these images dying, dead or their burial, and mistake them for friends or enemies. In this way he may, while asleep, see himself or a relative die, when in reality he has been warned that some good thought or deed is to be supplanted by an evil one. To illustrate: If it is a dear friend or relative whom he sees in the agony of death, he is warned against immoral or other improper thought and action, but if it is an enemy or some repulsive object dismantled in death, he may overcome his evil ways and thus give himself or friends cause for joy. Often the end or beginning of suspense or trials are foretold by dreams of this nature. They also frequently occur when the dreamer is controlled by imaginary states of evil or good. A man in that state is not himself, but is what the dominating influences make him. He may be warned of approaching conditions or his extrication from the same. In our dreams we are closer to our real self than in waking life. The hideous or pleasing incidents seen and heard about us in our dreams are all of our own making, they reflect the true state of our soul and body, and we cannot flee from them unless we drive them out of our being by the use of good thoughts and deeds, by the power of the spirit within us. See Corpse.
