Grave Dream Meaning — Seeing a Grave in a Dream
A grave dream is easily mistaken for an ill omen, but in traditional interpretation it is often a good omen meaning wealth luck and the care of one's ancestors.
Because it calls death to mind, a grave dream feels ominous, yet in traditional interpretation it is a classic dream read as a good omen symbolizing ancestral blessing or unexpected wealth luck. Seeing a well-kept grave or a tomb set in an auspicious site in particular is said to mean stability and prosperity for the household. Psychologically, it is explained as a wish to fully close out a past matter and move on to a new phase, or as a reflection of fear of loss. The state of the grave and the surrounding mood greatly affect the reading.
