Dreaming of an Apparition

apparition · very negative

An apparition in a dream signals danger to you and yours, and deceit.

What happens in the dream

  • A ghost or spectre: if you are in love, it is not returned, and an enemy is posing as a friend
  • For the young: be upright in romance, as your reputation is at stake
  • You see an apparition: calamity threatens your family, property and life; take great care of those who depend on you

How you felt

  • Fear: the dream often reflects a vague dread or grief
  • Mistrust: it may express a sense that something isn't what it seems

Ask yourself

  • What memory or fear keeps coming back to haunt me?
