Murder

A murder in dreams symbolizes the desire to "make someone go away," and should not be interpreted literally as a sign of murderous intent. Can you identify the recipient of your anger in waking life? If you are murdered in a dream, try to identify who in your waking life might be angry enough to want you "out of their life;" it could be an enemy, a divorcing spouse or a boss who you feel intends to fire you. In dreams of a murdered loved one or family member, the dreamer may be worried about a current course of action, which he or she believes is "hurting" the murdered person, i.e., a child or spouse. Repeated dreams of a murder reflect feelings of anger and frustration. It's time to speak to someone, and get it off your chest! If the murder occurred in self-defense, the dream is a positive sign of self-esteem and confidence; you are able to respond effectively to threats of attack.
