Drømmer om drap er kjent for å være uvanlige.
Det er mange detaljer som kan omringe en slik drøm, og dette kunne vært et mareritt for deg! Å drømme at du har begått et drap betyr at du setter en stopper for en gammel måte i livet og at en tidligere fiende kan komme inn i livet ditt igjen! Dette kan referere til en avhengighet du har eller en faktisk håndgripelig person - som vil bringe deg forvirring.
Drømmen antyder at du har innestengt sinne eller følt aggresjon eller på et tidligere selskap du bruker til å jobbe for, et gammelt forhold eller til og med mot deg selv. Ofte kan drømmene om drap oppstå i tider med stor depresjon. Føler du deg deprimert? Å drømme at du ser et drap antyder at andre vil lene seg på deg i fremtiden. Det kan være ganske bekymringsfullt å se noe drap i en drøm, til det punktet at du kan våkne opp og natt og bekymre deg. Mord er ikke det beste marerittet å ha, er jeg redd.

Hvis du faktisk ble myrdet under drømmen, kan det bety at du tapper opp din egen aggresjon som noe i fortiden din. There is a focus from a psychological point of view to move on in life and that you just have to let go of past problems. It also common that you dream of running away being chased by a murderer.

Dreams about somebody you know being murdered:
If there is somebody that you do not know or recognize during your dream this could be a symbolic representation of somebody in your current life you simply do not like. Dreams can sometimes be somewhat confusing, they are never straightforward and at times difficult to know what they actually mean. If you want to remove somebody from your life (or just take a break) then it is quite common to dream of somebody being murdered that you do not know in real life. This can be part of your own personality you want to murder or remove values represented by other people such as co-workers, bosses, partner or even children. Don’t worry it is not that dramatic and can just suggest you need a break – time away from someone for a while!

To dream YOU are the murderer suggests that your activities in life are not being seen, the worrying dream of a murder shows your subconscious mind that you need to be listened to, especially in a work context. To dream that somebody is killed by you indicates that you're on the point of losing self-control and you have had enough in life. Things that you would normally “let go” are now bothering you. You have become less tolerant! Consider and ask yourself whether you are feeling anger towards others in life? Your dream could be expressing some anger that is concealed. You could be attempting to kill a part of yourself which is represented by the killer in the dream. Identify the features of the murderer and ask yourself which of those qualities you're attempting to put an end to. Violent deaths in dreams are never easy to watch. If you commit murder, it suggests that you're engaging in certain situations where you should not be.
To dream that you murder somebody indicates that you don't want interference with certain people in life, not that you really wish to really kill others. To see somebody you know killed in your dream means you have been feeling confused or angry in life.
Dreams about murdering someone
Murderers are usually focused on two categories in dreams. Firstly, you murdered someone as you were a victim, and secondly, you killed for no reason. To dream that you are murdering someone roughly denotes that you are feeling isolated in life. If you are watching someone being murdered this can suggest you need to look at your levels of personal responsibility.
Attempting to make sense of why the murder was committed to someone else in your dream can be due to a range of circumstances. Furthermore, if there was no real reason then such violence could be a form of processing anger in daily life. We all learn as children that murder affects not only the psychological but also physical aspects of relationships in real life.
Trying to gain insight into your dreams about murdering someone will bring you to understand the whole picture around the relationship with the person featured in the dream. As you may stand silenced by the terrors in the dream please take this trauma dream as a way to draw your life together and understand that it occurred for a reason.
It is a reminder that you need to be treated better by people in general if you did not know the victim, or the person you murdered in the dream is a stranger then it can suggest that others will have an impact on your going forward. Even more intriguing is the fact that the dream does not always relate to anyone at all, it's about how you are responding to people in general. It might be a spiritual omen that you need the strength to build your life or change relationships.
What does it mean when you dream about killing someone?
Killing someone in a dream can result in an emotionally charged dream, the dream does not always predict subsequent events in the waking world, but the significance is important. Dreaming about killing someone you know can indicate that you would like to remove this person from your life, or take a break emotionally from them. The overwhelming majority of spiritual dream dictionaries denote that killing someone in a dream can be associated with the end of a relationship in waking life. Some of these dream meanings have been entirely lost.
I have learned from my own dreams that we often have the discovery of the origin of why we would like to kill something in our life. I was haunted by a dream where I killed my ex-partner. Of course, this was just a dream meaning I would like to get out of the relationship, which is what I did. This is after all just a dream. If the dream of killing someone keeps recurring and you see actual reminiscences that yield fear the waking mind then it is promoting you to deal with difficult things in life. We are often affected by impressions of our childhood and many dream psychologists have written that these experiences shape our dreams in adulthood, specifically murders as a way to project that we are undertaking transformation.

Dreams about murder with weapons:
It is obvious that weapons could be used during the dream. Finding yourself in a situation where you are using weapons in order to murder somebody can indicate cutting corners and you’re trying to figure out how to move forward in life. Some dreams are so vivid that they take us from the emotions of pain without experiencing any pain in real life. The main reason why you could see yourself using a weapon indicates you are trying to protect yourself from something in life, and, some people can actually control what happens in their dreams and this is known as lucid dreaming. For example, if you dream that a murderer is chasing you if you are in a lucid state you may be able to turn round and protect yourself. Science tells us that weapons in dreams often subconscious minds trying to protect ourselves from a traumatic event. This could pinpoint the root of our own murder dream nightmares. The purpose of dreams allows understanding our own urges that society judges may be unacceptable. It can be somewhat upsetting if you have committed a crime during the dream. We do have a focus on moral codes, the specifics surrounding the dream. Such as who was murdered, what with, and how really needs to be analyzed. The other element of the dream is that you could feel guilty about something. Weapons and the way someone died (or you died) can present themselves in many ways.

If you are trying to defend yourself from a gunshot dream you need to consider whether there is somebody that you wish to forgive.

The fire symbolizes your own obstacles and frustrations in the way of progress, if you are struggling with the situation waking life it can mean that your current situation requires you to think deeply at how to achieve your goals.
Dreams about murders and hanging:
To dream that somebody is trying to hang you illustrates possible confusion. It can also mean that you are tangled up with somebody in real life. If the rope was featured in your dream then this shows you will succeed in doing a problematic situation. If the murderer is tangling you in the rope it is a symbol that you need to stop and think about your future. To see yourself hanging from something in a dream may be a signal that there is a problem that is suspended or lacks confusion. If somebody tried to hang you upside down it means that you may be longing to complete your own wishes. I often think that hanging in dreams is represented by the tarot card of the hanged man, whereby he’s hanging from a rope and is unaware of how to move forward because he is bored with his general existence. I hope you can take something from this analogy.
Dreams about strangation:
To dream that you are strangled or asphyxiation was presented by someone else, in your dream indicates you may wish to review your potential and growth. Surprisingly, strangulation is quite an uncommon murder method in the real world. There was only 194 murders in the USA during 2012 which involved this method. The strangulation itself is no in psychology terms as an archetypal symbol and can indicate that you may wish to keep and the secrets and desires which are hidden from those people around you.
Dreams of murder and psychology:
Sigmund Freud in 1909 accompanied by Carl Jung delivered a series of lectures on psychoanalysis at Clark university in Worcester, Massachusetts. This lecture did address what murder can mean in the dream. Freud believed that the path to happiness and meaning can sometimes be misconstrued. Happiness will evolve if we live in the moment, and only for the moment. He believed that we want to understand our secrets of life that we must turn to the past however in certain situations we must always look and live for the future.
Carl Jung believed that dreaming of murder indicates one must ask what the future will bring. Historically, he wrote a number of papers filled with apocalyptic messages of how murder divides humanity into two parts. Death was associated with our deepest wishes and desires. In Freud’s book “ the interpretation of dreams” there was a number of different symbolism is which could represent our own lives. In particular, death indicates a journey that is taken and that our unconscious mind is focused on transforming.
Dreams about a murder from a scientific perspective:
Turning to science, there was research conducted in a sleep lab in Germany in 2014 about the implication of what dreaming of murder means. In this study, 443 students were analyzed to understand if there is any relationship between the various traits of those people who dream of murder. The study found that only a small proportion of people dream about murder (3%). And, murder dreams can be associated with our own aggression in waking life, especially, if you have watched violent movies played computer games. It was agreed in this research that people were somewhat introverted and found difficulty in socializing with others.
Dreams about a murder summary
In summary, there is lots to consider in a dream of murder. I’ve been analyzing dreams for the last 20 years, and last night I woke up from a nightmare where I was being murdered, which resulted in me updating this 10-year-old dream meaning. I know you may have been feeling somewhat apprehensive due to the fact that a murder dream is not a nice experience. Why did I have such a dream? I believe it was because of my feelings of disappointment at what happened in a past relationship. It’s quite uncommon to dream of being this way so you murdered, and normally indicates a transformation in life, I hope this dream meaning brings some closure to your dream.
