Death

Almost never an ending, but a transformation and a new beginning.

General Meaning

Seeing death in a dream can feel frightening, but in symbolic language it is rarely about literal death. Far more often it represents a transformation, the closing of a chapter, and a new beginning.

Psychological View

Something "dying" β€” an old habit, a way of relating, an identity β€” clears space for something new to be born. The butterfly emoji is chosen for this reason: the caterpillar's "death" is the butterfly's birth.

Possible Interpretations

Note: Dream interpretations are not a substitute for professional support; if you are experiencing intense distress, consult a specialist.
